Yea guys I took out my old power antenna rod and am looking to replace it. The rod itself has only the plastic piece which is used to raise and lower the antenna. If there is no actual wire in this long piece of metal then could I just replace it with anything? I tried putting random long objects in the hole but found that the only thing that really worked was when I touched the hole or the object when it was in the hole. Why is my body getting such good reception and besides going to nissan for a new pole what options do you guys suggest on replacing this thing?
