remove one of the holders from the package
take a small piece of styrene and slide it into the holder

draw a line around the opening

cut out the piece and test fit it

cut the top off and tape it in the spot

glue it in and set it aside
now cut a small strip of styrene then cut in into 6 pieces 4 small 2 long

cover the seam with filler and go build something till it is dry or build a second one to this point

hope this is helpful
