Is it me or is it a bitch to take of the stock antenna and replace it with the new...im having a hard time doing it...mine is a bitch to take off...my g/f took it off lats yr cause i went through a automatic car wash and now i guess she tighten that sucker really hard and now its a bitch to take off...any advice...i feel so stupid hahahaha

 

lmao .. your girl tightened it and you cant break it loose? I wouldnt tell too many ppl that.

 

haha...now i can get that sucker off...btw its too late..hahaha

 

It's probably not that she tightened it to hard but if that is the case and you can't get it off (sad, sad, sad) haha It is probably rusted on there and you will end up breaking the bolt. That happened with mine and I had to puchase a new antenna bracket for the inside of the trunk ($19 CAD) to install my shorty Z06 antenna.

 

tell your gf to take it off, if she put it there she can take it out

 

i just called her...."she was like it just twists off righty tighty lefty losey"..i was like right...shes coming from work and try to take it off

 

lol

 

yea i know hahaha

 

hhaha righty tighty ,lefty loosey

 

you can use just a crescent wrench whats so hard about it. then screw on the new one. hmm you got me with that q.

i mean if you tightened it and cant break it loose i guess.

Mid 06's and 07's have a 7mm thread 05-mid 06 have 6mm thread. Do you have the right antenna? See how to and cut OEM antenna.

Put a wrench on it.

Like WD-40

 

WD-40 and some pliers... If you need to put the stocker back on, just spray paint it.

If your shorty doesn't fit try this https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-guide-43/make-shorty-antenna-67163/ Just leave it on the car have someone hold the top and (use bolt cutters) cut, cap, done.
