Pick up an OEM one from the dealership for about $10, or just go to any auto part store and find one for much cheaper.

Even better...

I found out completely by chance that the plug that covers the wiper arm attachment nut will fit perfectly!!

I had removed the power antenna from my wrecked car and I needed something to plug the hole while the car was sitting outside at the time. I looked around and grabbed the cover and BAM, whaddya know!

I just ordered an OEM antenna hole plug from Trussville. $7.**. And the guy said there are only 29 of these left in the system. So get them while they're hot

On the other hand, the 1.5 DIN filler plate for the radio is apparently out of production

Dude, I'm tellin' ya...the 79 cent wiper arm plug works just as well and looks good.

I'll bet it's the same part!!

Got a pic of that? It may be even lower profile than the chunky rubber antenna plug.

I'll try and get one in the morning.

The wrecked car is in the garage with the passenger side against the wall, but it's on a dolly, so I will have to move some stuff and get the pic.

I thought the wiper plug is an all metal part? It might not be very waterproof.

It's not even close to the same part. The wiper cover plug has a much sharper transition, is smaller in diameter, and stands higher on the fender. It's also much easier to remove from the hole - think vandals, theives, kids.

In any event, here are the pics:
