Previous owner removed antenna
As the title says, previous owner removed the antenna on my 1995 mkiv. I did a search and I couldn't seem to find the best option to replace it. The aftermarket stereo he installed does have an antenna, but I guess he decided it would be better to leave a hole in the body, which has me fearing rust. Any thoughts?

I agree the oem antenna should be replaced. I'd recommend another oem power antenna, from Toyota. Your local Toyota dealership should be able to help you out. If you're looking for something less expensive, you'll probably have to go to an electronics retailer (eg. Best Buy)...their car stereo dept. should be able to: 1) install an affordable aftermarket antenna that fits ...and...more importantly... 2) ensure the oem antenna wire was properly connected to the aftermarket stereo.
