Power Antenna Questions

[samsungjay]

I have a 2002 firebird and my antenna mast snapped. Now it stays up 1/2 of the way (where the snap occured). I saw 2 different parts, 1 for the mast and one for the whole motor assy. I can still hear the motor run when i turn the car on so i know its not burnt out. The wire that retracts the mast is now inside and I dont know if i should just order the mast and try to string the wire through, or if the motor needs to be replaced. I also have nevered replaced the antenna and don't want to mess up anything. Has anyone done a replacement like this. Any tips or directions would be greatly appreciated.

RK Sport has power antennas in black or chrome if you just want to replace it. Not sure why they only show it if you select a V8 Camaro, but they work fine for any model Camaro or Firebird. I am on my second one (first one lasted 7 years) on my 96 Camaro.

Chrome
Black

Do i only need to replace the mast though. The wire that retracts the antenna is inside. how exactally do you replace the mast. does it unscrew or do I have to rip open the trunk to get to it?
