How to remove stuck antenna mast
 

89 vert

Put on my duckbill spoiler and just realized the antenna stops my trunk from opening all the way.

Do I just have to remove the nut on top ? And that's it?

I know I have to use needle nose or vise grips carefully with a towel.

I just don't want to fully remove the system and after I remove the mast I want to compress it to put it back in.

Nevermind. Got it out. The cable looked ok and NOT broken. So stupid me, I decide to rewind it back in but before I do that remove the whole antenna assembly to see if everything Is a-ok.

Turns out that it actually was broken .... Inside the wheel I found the rest of the cable.

I randomly got a message that popped up at the top of the forum last night that said they were doing maintenance "this afternoon" even though it was already 8 at night for me

but thats probably how you two got post attacked

Yeah, I got hit by that stuff too.
