Remove the entire antenna assembly not just the mast. You have 2 bolts/nuts holding the antenna. Pull back the trunk carpet on that side and remove the 2 bolts/nuts that hold the antenna assembly. Lower the antenna so that the unit is no longer in the hole. The grommet will mold to the body once it is rotated to the right direction ( prior to installing the antenna). Replace the grommet and I used some silicon spray to insert the antenna assembly back in. Attach the 2 mounting screws and you done. Use the silicon spray on the mast to lubricate it.
