Default Vehicle Roof Antenna Removal

I have a vehicle roof mounted VHF antenna and would like to remove it. What would be the best method to fill the hole? I am selling the vehicle so I need to do this pretty quick. Thanks!

Just find a shop that does radio installs (look 'em up in the phonebook). Go in and buy the 1 dollar rubber plug that goes in the hole.

Ditto on the rubber plug...

Or if you're feeling ballsy, find a parked police cruiser.. and get your own...

J/K on the last one, but yeah, find a radioshop, and get a plug to fill the hole. If you want it to look nice, grab you a can of cheap spray paint, and paint it to match the vehicle color..
