Default My antenna got stolen, need help!

My antenna got stolen (once again) but this time they took more than just the antenna.

Please take a look at the picture and advise me on how to get that bottom part fixed. I called Honda and they want over $100 for the whole assembly.

Thanks in advance.

That is the best oem site to order from, save hundreds by ordering through them than your local honda.

Yes, Majestic Honda has GREAT prices.

What I do is look it up on Majestic, then call all my local Honda dealers to match the price w/out shipping, and I pay tax. I still come out ahead even if I have to pay tax.

Out of 5 of the dealers I talk to, only one refuses to match Majestic's prices (University Honda in Davis, CA).

Good luck with your antenna.

Thank you all for your replies.

that's what it looks like to me--you just need those 3 parts.

as an fyi--your dealer probably stocks the rubber antenna from the Element (mine does but has to order the S2K one) --typically more of those are stolen than s2k antennas as there are more Elements on the road---it fits and works the same and looks the same except it is smooth all the way to the tip---it doesn't have the wide part on the very tip like the original S2ks antenna--many folks like the smooth one better.

I put locktite on mine and that is why they destroyed the assembly to steal it.

I need to fix the huge dent the thief left near the antenna whole, the guy/guys used pliers to get the antenna out.


Thanks for the tip jetboater.

^ thats exactly I dont put locktite on mines i have a bunch of extra ones cause my dad works at a salvege yard. Most of the ones I have ae from the honda fit but the new crv's have them too now. I figure ide rather get it stolen than have what happened to you or even worse have the quater pannel damdged.
