Hello.

I recently purchased a Nova drysuit with the Vega inflation valve, as I expect to be using a heated undergarment in the future and wanted to be future-proof. The issue I have run into is that without a cable the slot is just a big open hole into the drysuit. I expected it to come with some blanking plug or mechanism to close it off when not using a cable. Unfortunately, I was incorrect in my assumption.

Does anyone know what to do to plug this off without using a cable? Should I just make a custom nut, remove the nipple, and thread this into the hole? Would doing this on the internal side cause an issue or should I do it on the external side?

Thanks for the help.
