I just cut a piece of scrap black plastic to fit and glued it in from underneath. It would be nicer if there were an official Mercedes part for a blank switch location, but I know of no such. Some people have used the opportunity to drill a hole in the "filler plate" and mount an audio jack or two there for an auxiliary input (iPod, etc.) to the stereo, rather than have to make a hole somewhere else in the console.
