Antenna Mast I Give Up!!!

After spending 3 hrs trying to replace my antenna mast that should have taken 15 minutes I'm ready to punch a hole through the convertible top. First after removing the old mast, very easily, I inserted the new mast per the instructions all over this board. Couldn't get the sleeve in properly. After 5 more tries I thought perhaps the rest of the old cord was still inside the motor. Took the motor apart, nothing doing in there. Put it back in the car and redid the whole radio on/off procedure. Great, now the sleeve slips in, but after numerous tries the antenna only goes down to the point where it sticks up about an inch or two. After fiddling with that to maybe time it perfectly with the radio on/off thing and trying to insert it properly my radio starts blinking on and off and the antenna motor is making a pulling up and down motion. I don't want to take that damn antenna out again and open it up anymore so I'm wondering...how much is a new replacement antenna? The whole thing not the mast. Or is there anything obvious to you pros that I'm not doing? (Original owner,89 900t convert.,63,000 miles.not a typo)
