Antenna Holes

I have a Crown Vic (ex-Police) with some antenna holes on the rear decklid and on the roof (light bar wiring). What is the best way to repair, fill, plug, or whatever these holes. It needs to be relatively cheap (I'm only 16) but it's also gotta work pretty good. When I got the car, it had duct tape over the holes, it keeps water and other junk out, but it looks pretty hick. Any suggestions? Thanks,

Bobby

Re: Antenna Holes

I have a '98 vicky ex cop, and i had the same holes as well, i was able to get grommet type plugs over at an electrical store, and they are working very well.

Re: Antenna Holes

I went a small step more. I went to the Ford house and bought a can of spray paint that matched the color of my car. I had 3 plugs on on the trunk, 1 on the roof and 4 on the front bumper (i guess for bumper lights). I placed some paper under the rubber so the fall out wouldn't spray onto the paint on the car. Now the plugs are the same color as the car and don't stand out so much. You might have to put a base on the plug in order for the paint to stick.
