Lou,

I've not tried to repair an antenna, so my knowledge on the subject is pretty much tapped out. I have heard that a common failure is the nylon cord joint.

Glad to hear that sneaking it through the louvre hole worked. When the GNX owner told me about that trick I about kicked myself thinking of all the trouble it was to mess with the rivets.

You got any tips on adjusting the door windows? I have the book but it still is a PITA. I get it adjusted so that is seals good in all areas, then when I roll the window down and back up it shifts front to back and binds up. One thing I haven't tried is silicone on the seals.

In other news, I broke a cam sprocket bolt this weekend when torquing it per the factory manual spec of 31 ft-lbs. Is this a common treat on these cars, or am I just lucky?

Let us know how the antenna repair turns out.
