Hehe, yeah the stock retractable antennas take a beating over time.

Here's the writeup I found helpful and includes part #'s (altho the numbering seemed a bit confusing at first.. if you have questions I may be able to help explan the details.)

Additionally, Northridge Toyota had at the time offered a discount on parts for yotatech.com forum members, and I ordered the parts thru them. They may still do so. The contact I used was: Carrie Calkins [carriec@northridgetoyota.com]. You may want to email her to get a quote for the parts.

I can dig up the actual part #s I ordred too, if you need.

Hope it works for you and have fun! I'm pleased with mine.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions in the parts or process.

Did you post a link? I can't see it...
Yes, if you can find your exact part number it will be great?

 

Well, that's because I am, of course, an idiot.

I just edited the post and added the URL.

And here are the part #'s and prices I paid a few months back:

86300-35090 $39.21
86309-aa040 $32.18

That's the antenna mount assembly, which comes with a silver mast included. The second number is for the upgraded black mast with wound coil.

I just realized that I think that it was your screename that somebody directed me to search for 3rd-party bumper examples from. Thanks for all of those that I found.

Now to decide which to get...
