Body Plug for Power Antenna?
Does such a thing exist?
My power antenna was broken and I removed it. The local stations come in good enough without and I don't drive the car very much so I do not intent on replacing it. I'm left with a hole where the antenna used to come through. Does anyone manufacture any kind of 'plug' meant to cap it off? It is a 94 targa should that matter.

Just a suggestion:
Measure the diameter of the hole to be filled.
Check the plumbing department @ you local home improvement store for a sink hole cover also called a "****" plug. They are available in different sizes, material is normally stainless steel or chrome. They snap into place via spring fingers on the underside. Will take extra time to prep for paint. Maybe paint it black to match the buttons on the rear hatch glass.

I had a piece of black plastic/rubber thingie in the garage. I dremeled the underside until it fit like a glove into the hole. Then I used some clear silicone sparingly and put it in a few years back. Looks like a factory plug and I'm very pleased with it.
