Repairing FUBA radio antenna amplifier
#1

Hi there,
I have broken Antena base- right in the place where the whip mounts- screws in.
Unfortunately that base is part of the Fuba amplifier on 2000 Audi A6. Seems to be for AM/FM radio and phone.
Any suggestions how to repair it or where to find cheap replacement. I do not care about the phone reception but would like to keep good reception for AM/FM radio.
I see many BASEs for the antennas but I am not sure where to connect the antenna's wire on my ammplifier. I seem not able to do it on outside; ...that's why I opened the amplifier- but where to attach there?
Picture1- broken off piece; picture2- where the small piece normally is; picture 2- opened amplifier.
Thanks !

I currently have my headliner out (dont do it the pillars want to all shatter) and found my cable going from the booster to the radio was disconnected. I decided to follow the cable behind the cd changer and found an end for a Audi antenna with nothing else around. Is there susposed to be another box or controller it attaches to behind the cd changer? I honestly dont see how it gets to the raido especially without any other cables or wires short of the printer cable connection looking wire loom (I believe that's for the non usa on bord air compressor) could you show me pictures of what the antenna attaches to after the roof past the rear tail light? I have nothing behind the cd changer short of the cable that comes from the roof

Ok on mine I found that the drivers side is a phone atenna line and the passenger is the actual raido antenna. Mine was broken on the phone antenna side so I was worried for nothing
