Hi everyone i have tried to fit two different bee sting aerials to my ford fiesta MK4 1999

but with no luck as the thread that is already on the car is a 10mm thread and the thread hole on both the aerials are 8mm and 6mm

my question is : is it possible to remove the existing thread by simply unscrewing it (even though it is jammed in there)

and is there a bee sting aerial with a 10mm fitting

thanks hope you can help

as this is my first post thanks for having this great forum

happy new year
