Now this is kinda expensive (but hey, price includes shipping), and I'm sure I've seen similar empty enclosures with no Boss-like switch plate, but I found this lookalike:

Also speaking on both knobs & pots--
Prefer this:
To this:

I bought one of each of those Boss/Roland knobs and really need to get around to learning how to mold knobs so I can make them in nice translucent colors.
