At least in the past it's been a repro item though I don't recall the vendor; perhaps someone else will have that information though I've sent a query to someone who should know - I'll update if they come back with the source. I got mine from Antenna Masters but they've been out of business for some years now, though they offered a great rebuilding and remasting service. I've somewhere got an old and somewhat beat-up one if that's any help. Pretty easy to make a little spanner to remove/install without damaging them.
UPDATE: Sandy Chirco (Tuscon Packard) has them for $35 ea.

Kanter might be worth a shot. Surprisingly, they still have NOS antenna lead in cables so they might have the other parts too.

Two sources that I'm aware of:
Sandy Chirco (Tuscon Packard) and Joel Ray (Patrician Industries).

Is Tucson Packard still operating? I believe I had read Sandy was ill but wasn't there another store run by one of the family selling multiple make merchandise along with some Packard items.
They used to have a website but that link was changed some time back so it went to an ebay store. For the last month or so when I click the ebay store link instead of the merchandise it used to show, it comes back as just a single page with the name. Clicking the message to see the merchandise brings up another message that the store does not exist. Anyone else seeing that?

Laughing out load OD; as many misspell our fair city's name.
And yes HH56, Tucson Packard's eBay store seems to be down. I've heard Sandy was pretty sick, and now I also understand that he and his bride are doing much traveling in their RV. As for the physical store itself, it is known locally as Chirco Automotive. Far east side of town on East 22nd Street and not far from my home. The store is quite the place to go if you are into off-road VW's and dune buggies.

Kevin, thanks for correcting me on the spelling - I should know better, I've been there quite a few times.

FYI
So far, I have found Packards1 in Detroit and Max who both have Stainless reproductions.
