Default Looks like you cross threaded it and it is uneven now. Looks like it threads in at an angle not

straight up and down.

Default I don't have a roadster but my guess is the inside has some how ...

got on that angle. Can you see the back of it from inside the car? Sometimes it's a combination washer/screw type of arrangement. You might have to remove the trunk liner. Is the base loose in there?

Default My roadster base where you thread into does not stick up as much as yours does

and mine is level with the lower (wider part) base. try your stock antenna again and see if that has the same problem.
