Got a killer deal on these from another Explorerforum member (Clear Corners):

BUT, they are drilled for strobes (I was aware when I purchased them):

(Sorry, crappy lighting
)
So, I don't want strobes, any way to patch these holes?

Well, just for appearnce, try sticking a small piece of shiny aluminum tape onto the back of a larger piece, and then apply it over the hole, so the smaller piece is facing in. It won't be a good reflector, but it will make the hole less obvious.

Other than that, JB Weld...

Could always just take a small piece of metal, plastic, etc and put some RTV around the hole and cover it that way. Guaranteed seal.
