The Antenna mast of my 2005 Sonata was bent by kids, what is my best method of replacing? Do I need to replace motor and all?

Give these instructions a shot. Might be too generic but might be enough to get you going.

Installing the New Power Antenna

You need to remove the top cap cover, this is the ring on the top of the antenna that holds it to car then use some small needle nose pliers to pull the rest of the mast, if theres a broken part stuck inside then you will have to remove the ant and open the side to remove the rest of it, then reasmeblt unit and put back on car then slide new one in and have someone turn radio off as you feed ant in, if it doesnt go all the way in then turn radio on but dont let it come out then turn it back off fast and feed the rest of ant in, once its in place install the top cover ring to lock it in place. hope this helps.
