Denis, on my 9000CD 90 replacing the telescopic mast was very easy. I assume your car has an electrical antenna. Just buy a new one (only the mast, not the whole antenna, about 30-40$ in Germany), release the nut, switch the radio on and pull the antenna mast with the belt out of the hole. Now you need an assistant to switch the radio off. In this moment the antenna motor tries to move in the antenna belt. Put the belt in the hole (I think you need several tries to find the right position ;-) and note that the belt must be engaged in the transmission right from the beginning. I think the antenna didn't change during the years. Actually it was always a BOSCH. Hope, my bad english helps ...
