It should come out once the motor is on and the nut is removed.Getting it back in the body takes some time but one person can do it.How I did mine:With door closed turn the key to forward-on position but not start the to the off position.Turn on the stereo to activate the antenna and let it run until it stops,position the mast in place,push the cable down into the body but dont force it.With the cable in position open the door,this with kill the accessory feature and the antenna will activate pulling the cable into the body.It will take a few tries to get it right,if you dont get it the first time just turn on the stereo and the mast will come out.After I replaced the mast about a year ago now the reception sucks so will have to replace the whole thing at some point.Ive got a new 93 antenna,the wiring isn't the same as my 91 so Ill have to figure that out.Keep in mind that if the cable in the mast breaks and leaves a piece in the body the has to come apart.
