Go to home depot or lowes and brainstorm man.

There are so many plugs in the damn place. Hell try the adult toy store. I've been told that place is full of plugs.

Just did the same thing, I got whats called a push in plug(for electrical boxes) from the local hareware store. You'll have to look at what they have, as they had a assortment of sizes.

The capplugs piece I found looks exactly like the one SLP has, take a real close look. I'd almost be willing to bet that it is the same part.
