Default Quarter Glass Antenna Question

My window was recently shattered by my sons jogging stroller rolling into the window and I am now in need of a new window.

I was told the correct term for the glass was the "Driver's Quarter Glass W/ Antenna" It is the last piece of glass on the drivers side in the "trunk" area.

Is anyone aware if a the same glass without antenna would fit the opening,I have been quoted a price for the glass with antenna and installation nearing $700 but can get the piece without antenna much cheaper.

In case you didn't know..There is a thin wire imbedded in the glass that acts as your radio antenna... it may even be on both sides of the car. The glass without antenna should work just fine as long as you don't care much about your radio reception. If it was me I would find one in your local salvage yard with the antenna....should be available for $150 or so.

I have ordered the piece without antenna after reading your reply for only $75 shipped. Losing the antenna is a plus as it give me an excuse to get a satellite radio I have been looking to get.
