HOLY CRAP!!! thats def one of those things you'll never do again.
anyways, personally....i'd pay the $$$$ and take it to the stealership. im extremely mechanically (by trade) and i wouldnt take on that task. when your complete.....surely you'll be able to tell you've been in there. if you take it to the factory, except nothing less than perfection!!......then of coarse whip out your credit card and pay the thousand dollars they're gonna charge you!

it's replaceable. according to the manual, it's the gps and phone antenna.
however, getting to it by removing the headliner is a biotch! you pretty much have to strip everything except the seats and dashboard.

Get a estimate from the dealer. I did that with my other car when I was cleaning off snow and broke the stubby antenna. It cost 190 buck to fix 2 year ago. I would think the shark fin will cost more cus its color matched.
