Hey Scotty. This could probably happen to a lot of cars, but in my situation it’s a 2011 Toyota Sienna XL. The kids were shooting some basketball in the driveway and the ball got away from them. It ended up hitting and snapping the Sienna’s radio antenna. Problem is, it snapped inside the connection where you screw it in (top left of the hood next to windshield). I can’t screw a new antenna in because the remnants of the old one are in there. Any tips for clearing it out? Thanks!

Well unfortunately probably have to take the whole assembly out and replace it it does screw in and out but you'll have to take the inner fender liner in the tire off to get enough axles to get in there today get to it
You'll have to buy a new antenna assembly. Bit of a pain to install because you have to get at it through the wheel well, but definitely a DIY job.
It's just like removing any other snapped off bolt. Drill it out.
You can use a left-hand drill bit or a regular drill bit and a screw extractor bit.
