Filling holes in dash left from install

Anyone know of any material made or that can be used for filling in holes in dashes that are left behind when a detach is completed. Of course the material would need to match the color of the interior pretty close.
Example would be mic clip removed and would like to fill the holes left behind from it.
Thanks
Jason

A hot-glue gun works well for filling the holes. After the glue cools, trim with a new razor blade and dab some interior color touch-up paint over the "wound."

I agree with Jim, Ive used that on a few cars Ive owned. If you have rubber/plastic floor mats, black silicone and armour-all works wonders

"black silicone and armour-all works wonders"
Silcone can repair or adhere anything.
Armor-All can make a smashed turd look good!
Cable ties and/or Velcro will mount anything.
Bungee cords will hold anything secure such as consoles, video systems and siren speakers.
Fabric softeners stuffed under the seats (in the support springs) will make even and old car smell new again.
...and we ALL know about duck tape.

Jim,
As you well know.. Once you think you have seen it all...Something new and different comes along and makes you think.. What in the hell were they thinking.....
The D-60 speaker attached to the back bumper support with flex cuffs comes to mind... ( it was a local MSS that did that one)
