is the antenna connector on these cars a female or male plug? the connector on mine is ripped off the antenna wire so ive gotta try to crimp a new one on now, i order a nice headunit today and it comes with a 6" male-male adapter so i figure stock is a female anywho.



also my car had a BOSE system, but the wave system was removed from the back, when you remove the waves tho do you change anything up front? i ordered the scosche adapter from crutchfield already for the bose system.



should i look for the stock amps somewhere or something?



hopefully this kid put some rear speakers in here, otherwise i dont even know where those would go.

The antenna wire which goes into the head unit is a male plug, which is standard and the same on every antenna/head unit I've seen.



As a side note, I think the OEM antenna is ugly as hell. I shaved it and got a hidden radio antenna which I put in the pass. side A-pillar.

Yea i think thats what I'm going to do, the stock antenna wire is FUBAR anyway.



does the hidden antenna work good, like reception wise?

the fd also has an antenna in the windsheild, thats the other antenna wire. um i think with that and the hidden one, reception would be as good as stock

hmm my windshields been replaced, i dont see any antenna, i know i have one on my FC, cant find it on the FD tho.
