DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE YOU CAN PURCHASE THESE BLANKING PLUGS FROM..?

 

Cheers.

They are like rocking horse poo nowadays.  Not sure if there is a genuine part available as I'd quite like one too.

 

@Picasso any idea chap, you're really good with Toyota EPC!

My suspicion is that there may have been a 3rd party (not Toyota) part made at some point, which did the rounds for a while, sadly years on we've probably missed the boat.

 

Not overly bothered, as on a black car it hardly shows anyway, but I agree with the chaps, something could probably be fashioned for it.  Worst case could take it to a body shop and get them to fill and paint it?

It is possibly something that could be easily made on a 3D printer these days. 

Hi. Either a floor bung, if it is round, or as I did on my old Toyota Townace Noah, I made an aluminium plate, painted it ans pop riveted it on with some sealer under it.

It worked fine!

Another option.......shape up some Miliput putty, paint it and either glue/silicone it in place.  Would probably work quite well (is great stuff).

 

I used it to repair the lower door sills on an old A3 I had......they were prone to having the ends snapped off when people opened the doors out onto things carelessly (pavements mainly!) but I found this stuff could easily be fashioned into the right shape and would attach itself on ok and provide a solid fix and once painted you could hardly tell they were ever broken.
