Where at in Washington? if your in SW washington I have the parts to fix it.
I just ordered everything to do them here, But if we have to ship it it's probably not really worth it too much. the connectors are around 5-6 dollars each, I'd have to see I had to special order them from Radio Shack along with the tool to crimp them on.
the won't have the Black cover so it won't be exactly like the way they come from Garmin.

Any local communications shop should be able to do it for less than 10 bucks.

Go to Cowlitz River Rigging. They will have the right connector.

just don't leave them on your truck when you pull up the drive to your house (er my house) the snow laden bushes will overhang enough to topple that antenna across your roof and down the side of the cab........
did more paint damage to my 97 F250 than the previous 14 years of use did. I did get my hound back safely that night before he got to the highway though......ah, each day I learn something new. Paul Conway
