Power Antennae - a couple questions
My car came with the power antennae. Mine is broken. I think it would work, being as the green wire is cut (which I believe provides power to the unit), to stop the constant spinning due to a broken strap. However, the mast is bent, and it would be easier for me to just replace the one I have.
This is what came out of the car.
Is this the factory antennae?

I saw this on ebay, and it looks different. I realize they could have changed over the years, but I want to make sure I don't buy an incorrect one.
Also, if that one won't fit properly, does anyone know where else I can look for a direct replacement?
The part number on the mast is 22071862 and on the body (base of mast) is 22062579. I searched that and nothing came up.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Power Antennae - a couple questions
i am having the same problem, can not find power antenna, purchased two so far, autozone and ebay, both are 5 inches too short .
return what I can. but need some help finding the right one. to fit in hole in fender, and no i do not want to cut inner fender.
as you can see in the photos the antenna hits the inner fender, original fender, If I found the right one I will post.
also could not find isolation relay so I just put jumpers on the pug ends and everything works fine so far, also circuit breakers instead of fusable link.
thanks...

my original is broken in a few places, but will look at what they have and maybe try junk yard parts

Just replaced mine this spring with one from thirdgenranch;http://thirdgenranch.com/-strse-984/...nna/Detail.bok I had to cut the bracket off of my old one and weld it on the new one, but it works great when replaced.
