the power antenna on the wagon has packed up; I don't need or want a power antenna. Does anyone know a suitable manual unit that will go in? Everything on Ebay seems to be for sedan only.
Thanks

I've jammed the lowest, fattest segment of the old antenna in the hole, so I've got a fixed antenna about 6" long, this seems to be working fine. Probably won't be as good once I'm in weak signal areas.

Super Cheap Auto (SCA) have a wide range of after-market universal manual aerials, one of them should do the trick for you (but don't ask me which one!), see here:

Older model wagons had manual ones, te-tf

mt tj wagon has a manual one as well

I could not find a replacement aftermarket antenna to fit my TF wagon manual, so I bought a cheap antenna from supercheap and fitted the mast into the original body mount parts. It look a little bit of ingenuity but really wasn't all that hard. It looks and works perfectly. I think the only 'tricky' bit was drilling out the plastic slightly as the new mast was fractionally thicker.

Maybe you can do something similar using your power antenna parts.

yeah I'll try that. There are all these "universal -not for wagons" antenna on Ebay

the $8 antenna from Jaycar fits and works. It's not quite vertical but that's Ok for me.

My TH wagon has a manual aerial.
