90 Accord antenna hole leaking into trunk--replacement?
The previous owner installed an aftermarket power antenna that pulls the gasket when it goes up and down and creates a leak into the trunk whenever it rains. I tried tightening, etc, but it doesn't help. Can anyone recommend a replacement--I don't care if it's power as long as it's reliable and can create a tight seal so the trunk doesn't leak. Thanks!

When I bought my 91 the stock stereo had a blown channel and the antenna was broken off. I ended up putting the CD player I had previously removed from my 98 into the 91. Since the 98 has the antenna built into the rear windshield it didn't support a power antenna. So I just went down to Advance and bought a manual telescoping unit for 6 bucks and it has worked fine (reception and no leaks) ever since.
