Broken Antenna 2010

[Silver Ghost]

Hey Guys,

I'm brand new to the site and need some help. I have a 2010 SR5 with a crappy screw-in antenna and a tree branch broke it! I tried to remove it and it broke the stud right off. There is a little tiny piece of the threads still inside the base but I can't get it out.

I tried to get to it from inside the engine compartment but it can't get to it. What's the secret? Does the wheel well have to come off to get to it?

Appreciate any help / guidance you can give.

Thanks!

Bump. would really appreciate any advice. It's getting difficult to listen to the radio ;-)

Buy a small easy out set. Basically its a reversed drill bit. Drill through the center of it and then you take the easy out and thread it into the drilled portion. Then screw it out of place.
