Antenna Hole Plug

[gdeal]

The antenna does not go up or down.
I have a satellite radio so I don't really need it.
I would like to remove it completely and not replace it.
But that will leave a hole in the front fender.
Are there any antenna hole plugs for the 2003 Infiniti QX4?

Just unscrew the antenna and leave the remaining mount in the fender.

Yeah that sounds good but I was told that you can't do that with the Power Antenna ones.
Oh well it's all the way up now and doesn't go down but that's OK.
Thanks.

Have you checked for blown fuses? Maybe the fuse blew for the power antenna. If it's okay, have somebody stand near the antenna to see if they can hear the motor operating.

I haven't checked for blown fuses but now that you bring that up, where are the fuses?
I know that's a lame question. I could probably look that up in the Owner's manual.
Yeah the motor does work.
Somebody was standing by it when I was turning the radio off and on.
The reason it won't go down is because the antenna got bent somehow.
Thanks.

There are fuses behind the driver coin tray and in the engine bay on the passenger side. But since you hear the motor working I wouldn't bother to check the fuses.

Ok, Thanks.

Most hardware stores such as Ace, Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. carry many different sizes of plastic plug inserts, you should be able to find something that will fit.

Can you straighten the antenna enough to push it down, then unplug it so it doesn't go back up?

And there are rubber plugs used in the electonics biz that might work too. Radio Shack MIGHT have them, Mouser
Electronics for sure.

No it won't go down.
