Changing Antenna Whip

[Øystein]

Hi all,

I managed to get my antenna broken off at the car wash (yay me), it's broken right down by the black antenna fixture. I was wondering if it is possible to easily just replace the whip, and not the whole assembly?

I tried to unscrew the assembly, but there aretwo wires connected to it which didn't let me get a good look at the backside of it, and I did not want to pull too hard on them, just in case.

Car: 1993 Carina E XLi.
