Drill the plug out with a small drill bit such that a plug can be made from a round tooth pick bearing in mind the two strands of cord. Much like a 'needle threader', make a threader from thin wire to pull the cord loop through the hole. Notice the length of the other loops and make a retainer for the loop at the repetition lever while you tension the cord and insert the plug with glue. A toothpick across the slot will probably work unless it needs to be recessed a bit. Trim excess cord. Don't cut individual pieces, fabricate the new cords from a spool. -- Regards, Jon Page
