Wifi sometimes working and GPS not working after digitizer replacement

After replacing the glass frontal panel, I probably damage the very thin WIFI antenna while removing the glass with the spuldger.

Now I can find only some wifi networks, and not always.

Since I'm experiencing trouble also with the GPS (GMaps doesn't locate me), I solve all the problems just replacing the Wifi Antenna in the bottom of the iPad (nearby the home button on the right?).

Many thanks for your help

Can you kindly link me the replacement necessary for the upper antennas? The 3G signal is working fine, instead.
