There is a plastic screw you can use to fill the hole.
Available at the stealership for way more than it is worth; or you can buy it at most hardware stores.

Go to Lowes or Home Depot, etc.and get some black plastic push in caps in the specialty hardware drawer. Get a couple different sizes to make sure they fit. Did this on mine when I replaced my stocks with bar end mirrors....

And the hole on the left side is shorter than the one on the right, so you may need to trim the bottom of one of the push in caps to get it to fit snugly.

And my australian stealership charged me 90 cents each for the plugs... By the usual price differential, they should only be 25 cents each for you americans...
