My 1993 Taurus Wagon's antenna is broken. It actually has not been going up and down for a while now, but after coming out of the shop we've noticed that it's basically totally broken, the stub that is sticking out is totally loose, the antenna motor is making a donkey-like sound, and we only get one FM station and nothing on AM. I should probably call the dealer and complain, but I suspect that would claim that they didn't do it, and since it needed to be replaced anyway I wouldn't mind doing it if it can be done cheaply. The antenna is currently power, but I'd be ok with a manual one. How difficult is it to get in there and remove the old antenna and put in a generic one? Or should I just let my normal mechanic do it?
