Default Solo Seat=Hole In Fender?

I put a LePera solo seat on my 89 fxsts, now I have a hole in the back fender from the stock seat.
What has been done to cover this hole.
Open to any ideas.

Go to your nearest Advance parts store and get a pack of those little chrome plated plastic toppers. That's what I did. It's cheap and doesn't look too bad.

you can get a plastic plug for it. we have a fastner store here that sells them hard to tell from the pic, but a couple came with the used seat i bought.

You can get the Harley black rubber plugs or the plastic that has Harley logo or add the nut there and get the harley screw in plastic chrome cap. There are lots of things you can do with it. I was going to get a hood ordiment or maybe a toy chopper and mount it there. maybe a troll doll.

found these on ebay.

The dealer will have a plug for it or you can get fancy ones from the aftermarket.
