Adjuster plugs

Perhaps this is a silly question but I would like to fill in the holes on the brake backing plate where I do adjustments and cannot find a source for those little plugs... anyone know where I can get them or do I need to try and manufacture my own? Something about keeping water and dirt out of my freshly cleaned star adjusters....

Thanks very much!

Looks to be for the bug but at .60 cents each, I'll try 'em! Thanks!

Come on, look harder, read deeper, these cars are no longer made and parts are drying up! When you search, search!
