On a few areas where I glassed over wood that had holes drilled I just took 
some scraps of urethane foam and stuffed it in the holes.  It is very easy to 
see through one or two layers of glass to find where the holes are again.  With 
the foam in the hole you just need to drill through the glass and it is very 
easy to push the foam right through the hole.  I had pink foam.  If you have 
the brown foam it may not be easy to find the holes again.

For the question on the nylon bolts, hobby stores are a good place as someone 
mentioned.  My local Ace Hardware also carries them and all of the other not as 
common fasteners that Home Depot doesn't stock.  I have seen them at Lowes also.

I am planning my aileron installation. I understand the value of putting wax in 
the anchor nuts to prevent flox from closing up the access. I expect that I 
will also have to fill the holes drilled in the wood also. My question is, how 
do you locate the openings after the BID is placed over the wood to lock it to 
the aileron/wing?
