I am assuming that since you said you forgot to turn off your radio that you have the power antenna. I feel for you man, if you want a replacement the dealership charges about 300 big ones for a new power antenna. sure it takes about ten minutes to change but can you afford to. do what I did, 7 dollar pep boys antenna did the trick!!!!!!!!!!!!!

its 300 for the ENTIRE antenna.

much less for just the mast.

What do u mean by just the mast. I think the motor is still working since i still heard the motor sound when i turn on the radio.

Go to Ebay and search for antenna mast. in the automotive parts section. I think I saw one there. I have bought them from EBAY and they work fine.

I have a 2nd now from ebay,

you can buy just the antenna mast from the dealer. it'll run you around $60.00. it only takes about 5 minutes to put in. i had to do mine about 6 months ago.

Heres a power antenna on eBay for $39.95, not bad

if u dont wanna pay for a new power antenna id just get a euro style on and stick it on the rear windshield and then fiberglass over the old antenna hole

Thanks guys. Now i found 2 antenna on ebay. 1 is only the mast and 1 is the full motor but i dont know which one to get. I think my motor is still working cause i still heard the sound when i turn on the radio.

Can anybody tell me how to put the antenna mast on?
Including how to pull out the carpet until i see the motor and how to open the part on the body where i need to put the new mast on because my old broken mast is still there.
Thank you

unclesteve: please check your pm.

I will probably just do what illestgalant did. How well did it fit?
