Hi guys, I know that this is an old post owever I will tell you what I did to replace the sealing rubber for the base antena on my Yaris.
First of all Toyota only sells the assembly (antenna base + the sealing) for 150€, however the rubber that we need is the same as the VW Golf and Polo and VW sells it in separate for around 6€! So go to a VW part supplier and buy it because is exactly the same rubber.

In order to install it you can do it without disassemble anything in the interior. You only have to pour the rubber in hot water (near to the boiling temperature) for around one minute (in order to make the rubber more flexible), after that you mount it introducing it by the top of the antena base. After cooling of the rubber it stays in the place. Easy! I hope it works for you too.
