So when I bought my celica the motor on the power antenna didn't work and they had a wire clothes hanger on something jammed into it to fix the broken mast. I decided to just relocate the antenna all together so far I have about $80 involved in this upgrade but I messed up one of the adapters so I have to buy a new one. ( disclaimer: I don't know if this will work on a car without a sun roof)

Pics aren't the greatest took that at work ill.try to get some better ones later fair warning though pony up the Extra cash and get a universal antenna Metra's online catalog has them for sale I ended up spending a lot of extra cash cause I don't do my research and bought one that is supposed to be an OEM replacement for a newer optima lots of adapting involved whereas if you spent the extra you should just be able to drill the holes if I remember correctly I used a 3/4 but on the roof and a 2" metal holesaw bit from the inside so I would have plenty of room for the nut and socket
