theres a seller on ebay thats always selling them for 16 bucks shipped. i've taken out my old one. shouldnt be too hard. just make sure u turn the radio on and off so the motor can get the new antenna.

dont do the ebay one, it isnt a stock oem one, horrible fitment, and it still doesnt work properly. The fitment looks like s*** and it leaks. Don't buy it, bad investment

Novo. It's not too hard. The motor assembly can be taken apart if you look at it carefully and take your time.
You'll have to take the assembly out to do it.

as far as switching it out it was pretty simple just need the tool that screws the nut out, then pull the old one, then you guide the new one in turning the radio off to retract it in.

when you take the cover off the motor you'll see that the mast/sleeve is held in place by some little "teeth" near the base. Just keep twisting the mast and it should eventually come out.
I got the mast thru:
Bridgewood Motorsports
516 Buffalo St
Manitowoc, WI 54220
920-686-0644
bridgewood@ameritech.net
www.antennamastsrus.com

They send directions as well. I can send those as well if you want. PM me if you need to.

Are you sure the motor is shot?

Check Ebay, or the Classifieds forum - lots of people parting out their cars.
