Re: [T3] spring-loaded antenna

<x-flowed>I had a similar antenna on my Variant, I bought it in the early 90s. 
Mine wasnt a Hirschmann, but it was some German brand, which name has 
completely left my brain for good.

It was designed to slip into the base to prevent vandalizing, but I 
vandalized it myself when I forgot to push it down when I took the car 
into an automated carwash (yeah, I know - stupid me)
