Whoa, after typing motorized antenna a few times in the post above I threw that into google and came across a ton of info and shopping stuff.

I found one for 24 bux so I think I'll just go that route!

Thanks for the info guys

That would work, I see those short antennas on ebay for like 8 bux, but there isn't any part of the orginal antenna to save.

What I was afraid of was taking out the old antenna with the big motor under it and trying to find something to screw into the base of it. I figure that the base of the antenna is part of the motor, so if I removal all of it, i'm going to end up with a hole in the top of my quarter panel and nothing to screw an antenna into. Normal antennas that aren't motorized just have a simple mounting screw at the base of the unit that you can just unscrew the antenna and screw another one into it. Is this the same setup? The only thing that I saw at autozone was the antenna part itself that screws into the base, maybe I missed the ones that come with a base to wire up.

Being that my motor still works, is it possible to just replace the telescoping antenna with another one? Or would I have to buy the whole unit as a whole?

Hey guys, kinda new around here. Have a 94 celica gt that I just picked up for a work car. It's in pretty good shape, but the motorized antenna looks to be snapped off inside. I can hear the little motor running when I turn the radio on and off, but when you look down in the opening you can only see the base of it and it looks to be sheard off.

Even though its just a work car, it kinda stinks not having any reception to listen to the radio. Was going to replace it with the orginal parts, but not having much luck finding one. (saw one on ebay that I think would fit, but it was specific)

Anyway, if I just pick up a cheap one, is there much to changing it out? Seems like it could be one of those PITA things to get to. I'm going to be changing the rear struts out this week, if I take the rear drivers side panel off in the trunk can I get to the antenna from there?

Any specific type of antenna I need to look for? Anybody know a good place to pick the orginal motorized one up? Do the ones from the Gen 5 celicas work also?

Thanks for any info.
