I used a 7" magmount for a 5/8 WL on 2m.
It had a rubber boot.


My Larsen mag mount came with a thin sheet of
aluminum across the bottom. After much use, the
aluminum started to tear. I replaced the factory
aluminum with ordinary aluminum foil taped to the
base. It's not as sturdy as the original but it
costs virtually nothing to replace.
