How tall is your extended power antenna?

On my 1991 Coupe it is almost 24" from the fender to the tip of the fully extended antenna; I'm not sure if this is the full length or not, can someone out here tell me the height of their fully extended factory power antenna?

Thanks all!!

I need some of that for mine!

I am pretty sure that one of the sections is not extending on my antenna. I have a replacement mast and ribbon, but was not able to remove the existing mast/ribbon.

I tried (gently and not so gently) pulling up on the mast after removing the rubber body grommet and the hold down nut, but could not get it out.

I assume the ribbon/mast is broken which is why it won't fully extend, don't see why I would need to replace the whole antenna, correct?

Have looked up FAQs etc on mast replacement but none address this issue...any tips/advice?

Thanks!
