It wont fit.

Physically it wont be long enough when fully retracted. See rear wing pics of a rev 2 and rev 3+ and you will see the rev 2 spoiler assembly also goes along the rear wing.

Not all rev 3 aerials are the same. Some have wiring differences even if they have the same connector. I once tried many used ones to try and make up a good one for a rev3 and gave up.

If you need to replace your aerial go to your local car audio centre and get a generic aerial. They will also replace the connectors for a modern standard one so less hassle if you ever had to replace it again. New Toyota aerials (if they still do them) are very very expensive.

If the motor still works you can buy new mast's from the bay I just bought one for a Mk3 project for £20 and I did the same for a Shogun a while ago easy to fit and a lot cheaper than a complete unit.
