antenna on ZO6

[MY02_ZO6]

I was just sitting here thinking. Is there anyway you could remove the anetnna from the car w/o having a big whole in your car?
Or be able to drive w/o your antenna be up. I personaly thihnk the car looks a lot better w/o one... it looks sportier. JMO

Thanks,


Mike

The convertible antenna works out well, 2 of my customers put this on their Z06's

I don't see any problem with the fixed antenna. Most of the older classic Vettes have fixed antennas also.

Its a personal preference. I have a power antenna intended for the vert and plan to install as soon as I get my baby this week!

Not sure if I need the harness or just install some wires for power to it from the radio switch...need to do some more checking as soon as I get my baby this week!

Whoopee!!!

I don't mind the fix mast antenna. It is a pain when you cover the car.

Yes, but they are eaisly removed. I have not tried to use the radio w/o it, may give it a go to see if I get any stations, use the CD mostly anyway.

You know that antenna is a funny thing I don't really notice it that much, And even then it is not really offensive to me.

It's very peculiur (sp?) how chevy does seem to OMIT the antenna from some of their brochure pictures of the Z. hmmmmmm.

I installed a power antenna on my 1995 Z-28. It came off of a Trans Am of the same year. Costs about 98 bux from the GM dealer. You need to make four connections total:
1) 12volts constant
2) ground
3) signal from Delco radio (must identify exact pin)
4) RF connection
Good Luck

I punched a very small hole in my cover to allow the antenna to poke through. I used to find it very hard to install my car cover. The paint was so slick that I would put one side on and it would slide off before I could get the other side on. Now I just slip the hole over the antenna first thing and it holds the cover in place. Makes the install much easier. I think I do still have the info from someone who was selling the power antenna, I believe with the install goodies, for around $100 if you are interested.

Hermit,
I thought about doing that. Could not bring myself to cut my cover. So I just remove the antenna.
