My new S2000 Antenna won't fit. Why??

[LOUISIANAGTS]

Just bought it today. Only thing is that the S2000 antenna has a threaded base to screw into my celica base. The Celica base when I took off the stock antenna has a threaded base. so the Male fitting on the S2000 antenna wont screw onto the Male fitting on the car.. What do I need to do now??
I hope you might have one on your car where you might be able to know what to do.

what year is your car? cuz the threaded stub of the S2000 antenna should screw right into the OEM celica hole....unless you got an '03 and they changed something...

No, because I helped someone put an S2000 antenna on his '03.

No man, it's a 2000 model and when i unscrew the antenna it leaves a male threaded stub sticking up. And the S2000 antenna has a male also. is there a difference in the S2000 antennas?? what about the Celica base on the car?? did youo all have male threads on your factory antennas or females?? HELP ME !!

My car had the female thread, and S2000 has male. ;)
