To replace the power antenna shaft on a 2001 Firebird, first, remove the interior trim panel around the antenna to access the assembly. Disconnect the power connector and unscrew the antenna from its mounting point. Then, pull the broken shaft out and insert the new one, ensuring it is properly aligned. Reassemble the antenna, reconnect the power, and test it to ensure proper operation.

Buy the replacement antenna from Infiniti if you can afford their inflated price, and follow the directions, it's not that hard. Essentially you undo the ring nut where the antenna goes into the car, turn the radio on so the antenna rises, and it will shove it out of the shaft, along with the ribbed nylon strip that shoves the antenna up and down. To put in the new one, simply thread the nylon strip in the same way the old one came out and have someone turn off the radio. Feed the antenna back in, and put the nut back on. Good Luck!
