Antenna seal w124

Does anyone know of a workable antenna seal for the w124? Both my cars seals are shot. The Mercedes one is NLA, and I just tried the Ebay ones and they were hard plastic and not quite good enough to fit in there.
I tried grease, but the new seal is actually harder than the 30 year old broken one that came out of there.

I looked again and it looks like the lower is available, but not the upper. I suppose the lower is the more important one, and maybe the cheap eBay upper one will fit on top.

I have used the eBay seal on top of the OEM inner seal. It isn't perfect, but it does seem to work with no water leaks.

Thanks! I will try the M-B inner seal with eBay outer, and contact Becker if this doesn't work well enough.

I am holding off right now because it became too cold here to work on the car. I may get motivation in a few weeks.
