Somehow, my antenna broke off at the base. I think someone had tried attaching it with epoxy. The problem is that I ended up removing the rubber and the knurled stud that somehow attaches to the antenna shaft out of the antenna base. What I have now is the coaxial cable end that extends up out of the rear quarter panel at the base, but no way to attach a new antenna to it. I have no idea what it is called, but I need a coupling that will push down into the coaxial opening at the base that also has a threaded bolt on the opposite end through which the new antenna will thread onto. I saved the exterior pieces that cover and lock it in place but I am at a loss as how to fix this thing. I think I need some sort of adapter/connector such as an FME connector or something similar. I have pictures that I hope will help clarify the problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I looked on Toyota/Scion dealer part sites and the base with cable runs over $200.

Decided to order a used assembly/base from ebay for a third of the cost of a new one.
