Over the weekend my stock antenna stopped lifting and retracting, it stopped at half mast and would not go down any further even if a pushed on it. Every time i turned on the radio i could hear a grating noise coming from the antenna. I presumed the gears were stripped, so i set out the remove the wheel arc cover to get to the antenna. I removed it and opened it up, all the gears were intact. I did notice that the gear strip was loose, does the gear strip connect to the aerial?
After inspecting i notice the aerial its self wont close, seems like something is stuck inside. My question is were can i find a replacement? Has anyone completely deleted that antenna unit and installed an in car unit? I know the signal will be considerably weaker.
