IMHO.. a plug without belly gromets looks unfinnished... also, they do serve a purpose.. they protect the end grain that is created by drilling that hole for the swivel...galvanic corrosion only occures when you use brass swivels on stainless wire.. and then only if the swivel lays on the gromet.. aside from that.. the gromet has little or nbo effect on the corrosion...if you use a # drill and press fit the gromet with dab of epoxy , then epoxy the plug.. good luck getting them out... I agree with slip though.. nothing more annoying or ugly as a belly gromet dangling on a hook...
