Default Replacement antenna/aerial

Hi All,
Have just bought my first jeep,1995 cherokee sports and will be driving it regularly as soon as the new oil pressure switch arrives and is fitted !
In the meantime,I would like to replace the audio antenna/aerial as it has seen better days.I would like to get an antenna/aerial,in black,peferably retractable or one that unscrews to deter the local ferals from breaking it off !
Having trouble locating a replacement as,obviously,it needs to be specific to the vehicle due to the angle on the wing.
I am UK based but if anyone could send me a link to a supplier anywhere,I would be grateful !
Thanks in advance.....

I don't know of any specific companies without proper research myself, but a quick glance around google may help. An electric aerial will likely cost a few P so be ready for an expensive project.. Unless you have access to a scrap yard where you could take one from an old luxury car..

Thanks for the quick reply ! It's just a simple black non electric that i'm looking for,have searched Google many times and found many "universal" models but all have the round type of base that are fine for normal centrally located wing sites....but the cherokee hole is on the angled wing and so they will not fit(I am assuming that the hole under the seal is on partly the side of the wing).Jeep spares in the UK are far less common than in places such as Canada and USA !!

You could fab up a shim for one of those universal ones.
