Default Plug it or replace it......

Another one of those little jobs that need doing......
I have a small hole about the size of penny in my rear offside light cluster, near to top not affecting the light(when on) as such but obviously letting rain in.... Do I use some kind of plug/patch job or replace the whole unit.
Any ideas what to plug hole with or anyone with another cluster?

Mind you I have some small rubber gromits that would fit but would that be illegal?

Trying to plug or fill it is never going to look right.

Remember there's a difference between a 75 rear cluster and a ZT one.

Saloon rear lights all fit the same. Only difference is the lenses, 75 one has a smoked lens for the indicator, ZT one indicator lens is clear.
