Hello to all. I find this list incredibly helpful and well worth the
time sorting and deleting.

The old stock antenna broke off, so I bought a new one from Vanagain
or Bus Depot -- I forget which. Question is, how do I get the old one
out? The cast base of the old one fits into the oval hole in the hood
with some kind of Chinese puzzle shapes, and since I never had the
patience for those things, I can't seem to get it through. So then I
mistakenly dropped the whole thing down into the bodywork.

Any advice on snaking the base back out through the body or down
through the dash would be much appreciated.
