My power antenna went. It's stuck in the "up" position. When I turn the car off, you can hear the motor run for about 30 seconds, but the antenna doesn't move. Anyone got a working one, or going to a junkyard and might be able to grab one for me?

I bought one of the kits off e-bay. Worked like a charm, and wasn't expensive.

+1, very inexpensive and just feed the cable until the motor catches it. If you have an aftermarkt player with remote, you don't need anyone else to help you install it.

Good, if you go eBay or even flee market, you're going ot pay under $20 for the whole thing so it's worth it. Plus it's better than your old power antenna because this one retracts COMPLETELY as opposed to leaving about 30cm sticking out. And it's a new chrome finish so it adds a nice touch. If you go with ebay, it takes about a week to ship so be patient and play lots of CDS
