Default plastic radio bezel filler

I don't know the exact name of what this would be called but I have an aftermarket radio installed and they put the plastic holder there leaving an open cubby, is there anything people have done to fill this and put switches there or something?

screws, 3m double sided tape, velcro, (three best options since it makes the panel removable if needed) superglue, hair gel, whatever you want.

I cut my cubby out and installed an EQ in that spot, mounting the eq to the threaded holes on the radio. An equalizer is very useful when having amps for subs/door and wall speakers. Other than that its a sweet spot for a phone or ipod, i used a sheet of that sticky rubber mat you can get at auto parts counters thats for dashboards, its like a non slip pad deal.
