I need to plug my antenna hole to keep rain out. What works? Should I just shove a cork in it and call it a day? Leave the ***** jokes for another thread.

haha, i really was gonna say to use your ***** but i wont bc you said not to, and it probably wouldnt block much of the hole anyway.



the cork idea would work, but for a more permanent fix try a bolt, a nut, a washer and a rubber gasket, or an antenna.

No no no, no bolt and washer sticking out of your fender. Get a snap-in rubber grommet similar to the kind that they put in floor boards to allow easy draining if required. It might take a bit to find the right size one to work, but leave the bolts showing on fenders to the Honda ricers.

Well, the bolt/washer combo would work better than the duct tape I had on there before. The sun/rain ruined that, though.
