Default Antenna removal from a 99 xj

I was just in an accident on Monday and I need to replace my pass side fender. I got all the bolts out but I don't know how to remove the antenna. it looks like there is some kind of tool to unscrew it, but I have no idea where to get it. I would trash it, but it's my DD and I like my radio. does anyone know of a tool to use, or how else to remove it?

there is a special socket to remove the slotted nut...... i used a small hammer and very dull screwdriver to gently tap mine loose to remove.

I actually got a universal Antenna wrench and the sucker broke on the backside. i salvaged the top nut and the actual antenna wire. thank god i bought a fender with the antenna attached so i can try and salvage the bottom part. Thanks for the advice though bro
