broken antennae

[elaine logan]

asking for help....I exceeded my expertise and stripped the nut on my car antennae. Is there a way to remove the bolt and antennae to examine the problem before popping $500.00 to replace the whole antennae. I looked at after market parts and they have the amplifier as a section. I would appreciate any help. Mahalo

Look into "Shark Fin Antenna." Look for a company that will paint it the same as factory color. Aloha.
