New basin waste

I bought a 'flip top' waste for our new basin but now the basin has been delivered I've realised that as it is the 2 tap hole version it comes with a small hole for the bolt to hold a plug chain. If we use the flip top waste we obviously don't need a chain so can I get some sort of cover for the hole? If so where? Otherwise I think I'll have to change the waste to a standard plug and chain cos I think it'll look funny with the small bolt-hole there and nothing in it.

    Hmm yeah good idea. I'm just a bit worried that it might look rubbish. Wasn't aware that the basin had the plug bolt hole in it when I bought it but it's too late to start changing the suite now.
