I bought a mast off ebay and tryed to put it in. Worked for 1 day and the plastic cord broke. Im preaty sure i did everything right, just a poorly made part. Stuff like that on ebay is expected. Im not sure if u can get a replacement mast from the dealer, probely $$$ if they do still offer it. Hope this helps.

You could always retract the mast back in the fender and get one of those amplified antennas to stick up high in your back window. A friend of mine did that with his LS

Well I could retract it if it was still there but it's completely broken off, and the motor doesn't work either, I saw a couple replacement ones at autozone but none of them looked similar to the current one

You could use any universal ant. just find one tht comes w a couple of differant mounting cups so it sits straight on the car. Then just unplug the main ant. wirefrom the power ant asem. and plug into the universal one. Or u could get an amp. One tht sticks in the window tht does the same thing , you could then have the ant hole shaved and filled by a body shop, for a cleaner look...hope this helps...
