Non power antenna for Gen 3 montero

[offthepath]

After hitting a deer the mount for the antenna motor broke on my Gen 3. I'd rather just put a standard antenna in. Has anyone done this? Which part did you use?

Thanks

I used a short rubber stubbie antennna for mine. Feeding the antenna wire through the front quarterpanel/firewall was not very fun but otherwise easy project

I just looked around in Amazon for one with a big bendy spring. It works fine but it's already rusting so I wouldn't recommend it. It appears to be a standard hole and plug. Don't forget to pull the relay so you don't have to hear the click every time.

Yep, got the standard antenna off an XLS model in the junkyard. easy-peasy.
