Default Speaker Pod ?

So I put my new rear speakers on and I am a happy camper. Now what to do with the holes for the volume control and CB. Do I just buy the stitches and dummy them in there or take the pods back off and send them for a re-wrap? Solutions?

Some places like Dragonfly offers just the pods without cutouts and you put your own speakers in. But that doesn't help you since you already bought

Yeah I looked into that. Those are the ones for the standard size tour pak and bolt pattern. I have the Premium Leather Wrapped deal. Had to buy the correct pods from the Moco. I really didn't have a choice. Tough to find a used pair to fit. So I guess I am back to either ordering the switches or taking them off and having them wrapped. Funny thing is HD says they are matching leather wrapped pods. I say they are non matching vinyl pods. Anyway, any ideas out there?

Maybe Allen at Mean City could hook you up and rewrap them.

Another idea is to see if the street glide fascia antenna hole plug is remotely the same size as the switch back plate and you could use that as a blank.

I was thinking that myself. Not sure how it would look though. I will try Mean City tomorrow if I get some time. Might be my only option..Thanks
