Replacing the antenna - HondaClub.com

Fenix · 01-23-2007, 09:31 AM

Hi, I have a 90 integra gs, and the antenna on it has begun to make really weird noises when it's going up or down. Does anyone know where i can get my hands on a replacement? Or even better, a replacement that's a bit more low profile?

Well, I finally figured out a way to fix my integra's antenna, I decided that i didn't like the overall look of the damn thing when it was extended (i thought it looked like a toy car), so instead of replacing the old one I just bought a rocker switch, this gives me the option of keeping my antenna off while i drive with the stereo on, and if for some crazy reason i need the antenna to be up, I just need to flip the switch. After testing the connection it finally hit me, the cable that lifts and lowers your antenna is a different cable from that one that actually gives you a radio signal. I liked the look of the antenna down while i was driving so much that i just decided to just hide the rocker switch in the back with all the other stereo wires instead of slicing up my dash.
