Antenna

I replaced mine. It's not too hard to do. The most difficult part was removing the chrome ring at the base of the antenna without scratching it or the paint, because your going to reuse it on the power antenna. I did it with pliers and it got scratched. It was on pretty tight. Maybe there is a special tool for removing the chrome ring. You might want to find out. It will help alot. Good luck!

There's a special tool to use to remove the ring that holds your antenna down. It looks sort of like a box-end wrench with a couple nubs. I picked mine up at AutoZone for something like $7.

i don't think that maximas w/o comfort and convenience packages come with power antenna.

A power antena qualifies as "comfort and convenience"??? do you have to get out of your car and pull it up and down to use it?

j/k..
