1995 C220, electric antenna in rear quarter panel.
When I use my 13mm wrench to loosen the external chrome nut (the one with a hole in the middle that secures the mast in place) it just spins - doesn't come out of the fender trim piece at all. I tried holding the little plastic collar just below the nut with a pair of needle-nose, but it just spins and stays in place.
I reached around into the fender and can grip the antenna body itself, but again - no movement of the nut, it just spins and spins.
I'm out of thoughts on this one. Anybody have any ideas?
