The second wedge turned out better, so I took the first back out (the closest to the lock) and Pinged it some more. It now matches the top one better and looks better and match better with the top one now. FYI, the wedges I had bought or had on hand were to narrow/small for these holes. Yes, I could of bowed them and they would probably worked just fine, but the new wedge pins fit and fill the holes better (at least in my opinion.). Thanks for everyone's advise, Mission accomplish with a little help from my friends here!
