Installation Instructions:

 

1. Use original factory hole or select a location on the front or back fender of car for mounting antenna. After selecting 
the location for installation, make sure the underside of the fender is free of any obstruction such as weld beads, braces, 
gussets and sub-fender. Also, be sure that sufficient clearance is available under the fender to house the antenna, 
approximately 11 1/2 inches or 29cm. 
 
2. Remove the installed mounting base from the new antenna. 
 
3. Drill a 1/8" / 3mm pilot hole, then enlarge the pilot hole to 1" / 25mm using a drill bit. 
 
4. Remove all burrs, paint, road dirt or undercoating from around the underside of the hole. 
 
5. Install the antenna from the underside of the fender and assemble the base above the fender. Make sure that the retainer 
rests evenly on the underside of the fender to prevent any possible damage to the vehicle. Align the mast vertically by 
slightly tightening the antenna mounting nut while adjusting the mast to make it vertical. 
 
6. To prevent movement and maintain the desired angle, secure the bottom of the motor assembly with the supplied 
perforated strap. Holes are provided with the strap to acconiii,odate various mounting positions. It may be necessary to 
bend the strap so that it will fi onto the antenna and car properly. Make sure that the antenna retainer is grounded to 
the underside of the fender and the black ground wire is grounded correctly to the vehicle chassis. If the retainer and 
ground wire are not properly grounded then the antenna will fail to operate. 
 
7. With the bottom of the antenna assembly secured and the mast at the desired angle and the retainer resting evenly on 
the underside of the fender, tighten the mounting nut firmly to secure the entire antenna assembly. Do not tighten the 
nut excessively as this may strip or break the mounting threads. 
 
8. Attach the drain tube to the bottom of the motor assembly and route to the outside of the car. Avoid any kinks or bends in 
the tube that may restrict drainage. 
 
9. Once the main installation is complete you can start to route the electrical wiring and coaxial cable into the dash area of 
the vehicle. You may need a 5/8" / 16mm hole drilled in the interior panel when routing the wires and cable from the 
front fender. If possible, avoid routing the coaxial cable into the engine compartment. The electrical noise found in this 
area may be transmitted into the antenna wiring. 
 
10. Now that all the wires have been routed to the interior of the vehicle you can now srart connecting them. Connect the 
red wire to a positive power ) with a 5 amp in-line fuse (not supplied). 
 
11. Connect the thin black wire to negative ground (-) if not already connected during the installation of the antenna to 
a suitable point on the chassis or to the negative terminal of the battery. Please note that without correct grounding the 
antenna will fail to operate. 
 
12. Connect the green wire from the antenna to the remote switch wire of the radio (normally blue) and connect the 
coaxial cable from the antenna to the radio. 
 
13. The installation is now complete. Please be sure that there is enough room for the antenna to fully extend before 
powering up.
