So I dont recall when this happened but i noticed it yesterday that my antenna has broken off at the base and I cant remove it. Any suggestions on fixes or removing the broken piece to replace? Thanks

Drill it out? Use a bit smaller than the antenna extension and then break the remaining pieces. I think it's a bit of a pain to remove and replace the unit.

I had mine snap off inside the base too. I first tried to extract it out, but just ended up chewing the material up inside. I bought a new base from gmparts. The job wasn't that difficult to do, but having smaller hands and arms helps. I removed the glove box to disconnect the wire, took out the push pins in the inner fender, and was able to slide my arm up there to fish the new wire through. Removing the entire inner fender would have made the job easier.
