I can't accept an incorrect part, if it has my antenna at an angle. So whats up with this base? Did I do something wrong?


That is obviously not right. I cannot help you as mine has the factory top bezel but the rest of the antenna is a disguised two way radio antenna. They were used in the era by undercover cops from BNDD, FBI and other groups with initials for surveillance. I am using it for amateur radio. It has been on the car since 1979.
