I like the ones I got at West Marine. Nice rubber gaskets and hole cover
flap.

I also found a dual port USB (power only) lighter adapter that I'll
deconstruct and mount on the dash, wired into the lighter circuit for
charging gizmos and such.

Let me know if you find some crazy good heater flap gasket material. Gotta
do that when the dash is off to replace my leakish heater core and creaky
motor.
