So with the motorized antenna on our cars has anyone tried to wire up a toggle switch to make the antenna go up and down instead of turning the stereo on and off? I was curious about this because i was thinking of doing this myself and thought maybe if there was a how to somewhere that it might make it a lil easier on me.

its not hard to do. just use the haft mast switch from a 3rd gen accord.
antennas have only 2 wires. depending on how you send the power, itll either go up or down

The USDM Accord antenna has 3 wires. Power, ground and trigger. Apply power to the trigger wire and the antenna goes up. Remove power from the trigger wire and the antenna goes down. Simple.
To add a switch, just cut the wire at the back of the radio that triggers the antenna and put a switch inline with it. Swith opens, antenna goes down.Originally posted by Junior Smurff
