After taking of the wiper I have seen lots of different things people have used for a bung / grommet, I first purchased the rubber bung from halfords but unfortunately it was too slack. So I found an a alternative from screwfix, nobody seems to sell black bungs so I thought I would get some black vinyl and try and wrap it. Which I did and I'm much happier with it being a gloss finish as it will match the van much better. Image

I bought something similar last week.. A tap blank from B&Q, can't believe it's pretty much the same as ones on eBay for like a tenner!

What colour is your caddy, what are you going to do to colour code it.
