Have you tried the Help isle at a parts store?

Yeah I tried there.  Also called dealership and it is discontinued.  Part number is 6502246 and its called the Dash Center Hole body plug.  Found one online for 13 bucks but they want 20 bucks to ship something that weighs almost nothing from Tampa to here.  I called them and they are going to get back to me this afternoon about cheaper shipping.

There is a pack of them at Pep Boys and other auto parts stores, various sizes. Is it an odd size or something?  If not, get one of these variety packs and find one that works.

Yeah it is an odd size.  quite large actually.  Maybe 2.5 inches by 1.5 inch oval shape.

Might have one in the garage, I'll try to dig around this weekend if you haven't found anything by then.

Thanks so much!  Not sure I will find anything by the weekend.  The guy never called me back and I leave for a cabin in Helen tomorrow afternoon to go to my future brother in law's bachelor party this weekend.  You can see what it looks like here.  in one of the pics you can see clear through to my drivers floor mat.

You can get one from "Larry the TJ guy". He is right past the Hall/Lumpkin County line on Hwy 60. You can swing by there on the way to Helen. It's 30 minutes away.
Larry's number is 404 427 6873. Call before you head out his way, you may not like his price. He likes his parts.
Good luck.
