Here is full walkthrough on antenna shortening. http://www.mustangworld.com/ourpics/fcar/antenna1.htm But you might just want to get a windshield with a built in antenna. But they can be pricey.

i may be misreading this somehow or something, but if it a collapsible antenna and you want it shorter, why dont you just push it down. i may be mistaken, but this sounds like what you want to do.
