probably fairly easy to fix but a photo of the current hole and the indicators would make it much easier to suggest how to do it.

Easy fix would be two large washers.

Proper fix would need plastic welding or you might get away with fiberglass and some paint.

is there not a spacer or something i can put on the outside to make it look tidy and then a bracket i can put on the inside to hold it on or something?

i know i'm full of stupid questions, sorry.

As a cheap cover up, you could replace the indicators with some tear-drop shaped flush-fitting ones.

Alternatively, before you get that respray you were on about... Fill the hole? Wink

A+ for English comprehension that lad.

As Chives says you asked how to tidy them up to which I replied bin them. Tear drops would look better, be better quality and cover the holes. I probably have a few spare second hand one's kicking around as well..
