Make your own.

I think what Lawson is saying is acquire a steel shot bag and form your own plate by hand. Google "steel shot bag"

which hole? the one where the filler went or the one left where the gas line went thru floor. When I did mine I use a piece of cab from a junker--have plenty for that, hole in bottom is easy-just a flat piece cut with a small "handle" on one side

the hole on the passenger outside side of the cab, where the gas filler tube went thru. looking for a source for a patch panel
