So, clearing snow off of my girlfriend's CLK 500 I accidentally snapped the rear antenna in half. It was still hanging on -- only just -- so I used some black duct tape to hold it in place.

From what I could see of the exposed glass, I didn't see any wires... so I'm wondering if this thing is just stuck on with double-sided tape. Can I remove it without exposing any holes in the glass? Also, anyone happen to have a part # so I can order a replacement?

I suppose I will swing by the dealer this week to see if they have any replacements on hand, but I'd like to know if I can remove the broken one without having a replacement handy.

 

you alway can twist the top part out. Any pics how the damage is ?

I didn't get any pics of it, but I cracked the base in half immediately to the left of the protruding antenna, to where it was barely hanging on by the factory tape/glue.

Basically I was just unsure if the antenna is actually hooked up to anything or if it just rests against the glass (for whatever reason?).

 

ic ic hopefully someone can chime in for that part number.
