The antenna extension of my 1971 280S was broken off. Wanting to try
and replace it, I was loosening the nut holding the antenna assembly against the front fender,
and yup, just as soon as it was loosened, the whole thing fell down into the fender well.
[where it yet remains]
1. How do I get it out of there?
2. Is a special MB antenna part required, or can I buy a universal extension that will repair the antenna?
3. Are there any special tricks to replacing the original radio? I want decently good sound quality and plan to replace the radio and speakers. Any reason a so-called "qualified" installer couldn't handle this? Any
precautions I should be aware of?
Thanks very much.
