Default Antenna Issues Help?

Well I just bought my car and the antenna was broken off at the base. I drilled the center out for an easy out and in the process of pounding the easy out into the hole i had drilled the hole assembly shifted down. To add insult to injury I busted the easy out. So what do you guys think I should do next? I'm not sure on if the part will need to be replaced, or if I can simply push the antenna back up to be flush?

Here is a picture:

Maybe take out the spare and you'll see exactly how it is removed. There is either two or three bolts and it pulls straight down.

I see that now, I messed around with it a bit and see how to get it out. I'll try and pull it out tomorrow and try a new easy out to get the broken stud out. Anyone know what size the threads are on the antenna?

What broken stud are you talking about?
