Does anyone make a Truck Cover with the antenns cut out?

I need to buy a new truck cover as the other one I had was destroyed in the tornado ... Does anyone make a cover with the hole already cut out for the antenna? Thanks

Re: Does anyone make a Truck Cover with the antenns cut out?

Never searched out a cover like that but needed to park my truck outside this past year and bought a regular cover. I just used a tennis ball with a hole it to cover the antennae. Worked great, until I forgot to put the tennis ball on one day while in a rush and the antennae punched through. Now the cover has some gorilla tape over the hole and the tennis ball is taped to the underside of the cover right where it needs to be!

Use a tarp grommet kit. I got one from Lowe's for about 6 bucks.

70cst-I bought three covers from California Car Cover Co. Two for my truck and one for a car, all came with antenna grommet you can install. Five year warranty. I had one rip after four years sent them a pic and they sent me a new one. Great company! Wow mother nature destroyed Your building but not Your Truck or You! Hope You recover from tornado.

Re: Does anyone make a Truck Cover with the antenns cut out?

I'll second the cali car covers.

Both of mine came with the grommet. But I didn't put one in my truck cover since it don't have a radio.

I put the one in on my car cover and it works good. It's also help too get the cover orientated once you start putting it on.
I look for the logo and the grommet then I know if I have it inside out or facing forward.

Good covers thick ,durable and made very well.

A few months ago I took both mine too the laundromat too wash them since they are too big too fit in my home washer.

Car cover was a easy fit but the truck cover just barely fit into the large washer at the launderamat but it worked and came out clean.

Which ever cover you choose buy a plastic tote too keep it in anytime your not using the cover it helps since they can be tricky too keep rolled or folded up.
