Need help asap to get my dumb antenna base off my fender. So far I got the top plastic cover off by breaking it. then took the 3 star shaped screws out of the metal base. Now my antenna orange wire is like soldered or welded into the big metal cylander base thing. So I can't even finish removing my fender which is off except for the dumb orange antenna wire still being connected. Any ideas thanks

 

Blast!

Okay , I got nothing.

 

nevermind I'm a dumbass. I just had to use pliers to pry the orange antenna end out of the cylinder thing. Dam I messed up my entire black plastic antenna base trying to unplug the stupid thing. So now I have to see how much ford wants for a new base. I hope its not much. But good news is I got my fender off, pounded out the dents with a hammer, then spent a hour pulling on it on the car so I can open my passenger door again.

Fixed fender, just used a house hammer to pound out the dents. Now my door opens again. This is just a temp fix, till I can afford a new fender and paint and fix door and rear quarter panel too.
