Plugging the rear wiper-motor drive hole

I'm gonna use this, if it will drop-in, and it sure looks like it should - I'm sure someone knows off the top-of-their-head what the size of the opening is, but this is 1.175" @ thread, 1.493 outside - it's a plug for an electrical box, and there are several variants - this one has a nice rubber washer for the seal:

I'm sure I'm not the first to use these, but.

I just used one of the plugs from the fender-well for the trans mount but this is a good idea, too.

What's the extract part # on this or direct link would be great...thanks..

Just had it laying around from another project - I'll try to do some research and or lay hands on some other examples - if I can't get some info shortly, something's wrong.

Does anyone know how big the hole is, precisely?

I'll be at work checking out availability before I can take mine apart...

There is an actual Mitsubishi factory plug for this exact purpose, a guy was selling a few on 3Si a while ago IIRC. Impossible to find now though.

Yea I would like to know the part # as well.

I'm at work where I can get the info on the plugs, but I don't know what the diameter of the hole is - if someone can give me that info quick I can do a better job of finding stuff here...

23mm for future reference :)

Okay, gotta find something else - I'l report back here once I've consulted all my electricians.

Okay, got it; this baby will do the job - I'd recommend skinning the gasket with RTV to get an optimum seal:
