Default 5th generation antenna mount

Carwash broke the antenna of my '97. It snapped off clean at the mount. I'm assuming this is a female ended antenna, therefore I need to replace the mount too. Having a hell of a time finding replacement parts online. Anyone know of a source? Otherwise I think I'm going to need to start searching junk yards for 5th Gen Monte Carlos and Luminas.

Not sure id you have a U-Pull it yard where you are at but they would be a good source for parts. I have one about 45 minutes from me and get a bunch of parts there. they have at least 10 5th gens in the place. A few years ago I got a power antenna that will fit on the car but haven't installed it yet something you may want to check out. Then the Carwash can't get it.

Found one from a boneyard, online. $30. Its a fixed mount, I'd like to have upgraded to a power antenna, but I'm happy to just get it replaced.

Now, hopefully the Steck antenna wrench O'Reillys sells will fit. The way my luck goes it fits every car but a 5th gen monte carlo...
