    Hello,
    Some use tape. Others fiberglass theirs. I found a grommet that fit perfectly and seals fine while leaving my antenna in the original position.

      depends if your gonna use it Ive sealed mine by using a small bit of plastic you can use an old bank or credit card cut it larger than the hole and epoxy both sides to ensure a water tight fit ........

          I mounted an antenna tube into a push rod seal and glued that into the hole to seal it all up.

                  I used the Dubro ones. That's what I found at my LHS.
