Re: [DML] Is there a Direct Replacement for the Electric rear Antenna?

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not exactly "no problem" - I installed this one for your 
friend....There are a couple of simple mods that you need to do to 
use it. 

You have to make the hole at the top of the bracket larger, and 
rewire it a little. Most of the OEM units use a relay in the computer 
compartment to switch between up and down. The replacement one senses 
right off the radio antenna lead, so you can toss all that relay 
stuff away and just hook the sense wire right to the radio antenna control wire. (This was an aftermarket radio install too, it may be different with the OEM).
