I want to run my saph without ABS and would prefer to do it neatly by properly blanking off the holes in the front and rear hubs, is there anyone that has done this or a place which provides something I can use.
I'd rather not use a rubber grommet if i can avoid it, I was thinking more along the lines of some silicone sealant and then a small plate on top of with a bolt which screws into the original thread to stop shit getting into the hole.

Glad to hear it, there must be a few people that want to do this as well. I'm sure if someone made these small plates that there would be a market for it.
I did think of using sensors too, but i don't have any old ones to use and i think it would look better finished with a fabricated plug of sorts.

Why not just cut a thread into the hole and screw in a bolt and washer, cheap as chips, and do the same to the two smaller holes. 3 allen heads would look nice and neat

Just made small plates and bolted using original hole on mine,then painted the whole thing black, reason being is that if you have a picky mot inspector he could notice that the car originally had abs fitted and fail the car as it no longer works, for this reason I didn't use my old sensors.
ford did actual blanking plugs and they were fitted to the cars (the rears anyway) without abs but with rear discs as the wishbones are all the same
