2013 ST Linited Antenna replacement

[RunSharon]

Remembering that I am pretty technically impaired, will someone please tell me how to remove the antenna boot on my 2013 ST Limited? Someone snapped off the antenna at the base and I would like to replace it. Suggestions for a new antenna and how to take the old base off would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much in advance ~ Sharon

I don't mean to be stupid but the boot on my ST looks differently. Will the lift from the bottom and squeeze method work for it too?

Not quite but its not too difficult either fyi. I would recommend having a good selection of small openend wrenches on hand you will need 2 one to loosen ,while one holds backup , sorry I forgot the size but it is doable i changed mine in the first month
the replacement i used was a universal fit type & i adapted with all thread. Will post better pics soon.

......Sharon I have found it very helpful if I know how things are put together before I attempt to take them apart .... Many of the vendor sites have parts FICHEs' that you can look at that shows them in pieces ...PROCALIBER.COM is one or CHEAPARTS .COM ........ Mike :thumbup:

ok so here is one of the pics I got around to. I used SS all-thread to adapt to new antenna & the nuts to lock in place. I can get the exact size & thread count if you need just pm me.

One more of the base from stock antenna fyi the rubber boot just slides up & provides acess for a wrench. Find the right size wrench& turn the correct direction & it will come on out.
