Default RS4 waterproof radio tray?

Has anyone made a waterproof radio tray for his RS4? I mean sealing the stock one. I've found many ways of ding something like that but I'd like to ask if anyone has already done something like that. Any suggestions?

As you know i'm not familiar with the RS4...but how about a balloon containing the rx within the box then it does not matter if the box leaks a bit?
Any chance of a picture for me to see?

Pics of the radio tray ? I've not done anything yet. I was thinking of installing rubber or silicon stripes at the radio boxes contacts and close the holes from where the wires come out with rubber too.
