Plugging Firewall Hole

Plugging Firewall Hole
I had an alarm installer use the rubber boot, that is normally where the clutch pedal goes if I had a manual, to run some wires through for an alarm installer today. By the way, this is on my 2001 F-150 4x4 SCrew.
Anyway, he cut an X in the boot to put the wires through. Now I hear the road noise and engine more than I want to. Can anyone tell me if there is some kind of sealer I can put on these wires and boot to make them watertight and airtight as well again?
Appreciate any and all help...

foyboy,
Try a glob of exterior silicone sealant. It will be durable enough to withstand the elements, and it is workable so that you can get it into almost any holes. Also you can cut off any extra that looks ugly after it has dried. I did the same when I had my alarm/ remote starter installed.
