2004 Antenna base snapped

OK The wife wiped out the antenna...the garage door to the Bat cave had yet to fully open upon departure. Any quick fixes to this one? It looks like the metal is non magnetic and I was hoping for a patch job of some sort.

You are saying the replaceable screw-on section is ok but the base snapped off the roof?

That is it...the portion of the metal extension above the roof retaining bolt to the receiver of the mast is cracked. I am thinking it could be resolved in a "cheap" fix.

I've replaced several of these for similar incendents. I've got a couple 02-04 antenna bases that I can sell you cheap. Give me a call.
