If it's seized you're best off getting a new base and aerial, as mentioned already.

So just leave it under the dash and it will work?
What about the hole left in the roof?

Yeah just leave it in the dash and it will work, regarding the roof, that's the reason i'm not fitting one for now, I'm planning on vinyling the roof (I have a panoramic sunroof) and the vinyl will cover the hole, but in your case you'll need to fill it and sand and paint. or vinyl the roof
