I guess it depends on the size of the hole.. And the size of the reciever. You might want to try to see if you can get one that'll cover the existing hole, and seal it up..Or leave the base of the old antenna up there and do what Mike did..

Notched a hole in the base of the stock antenna and ran a wire through it..then sealed it from inside with silicon.
