    power antenna for n/a DX

    hey i was wondering if I could install a power antenna on a 91 DX that orginally didn't come with one from the factory. Right now i have a treaded iron rod as an antenna(ghetto). I wanna put an oem one back in and found some power ones on ebay. Any thoughts about these? has anyone tried this before? Thanks, BTW, I'm new on here. I just bought a 91 accord dx. My other car is a 98 eclipse GST with all stage 2 mods putting 300 whp down with front LSD. EVO big16G turbo. I also have some stock parts left from the swap and thought about either installing them on the DX or selling them.

            yeah, if it has the OEM wiring to that area, it should be easy to put in. even if not, all it needs is 3 wires: +12v while the car is on, +12v when the radio is on, and a ground.

                try this from the DIY section, even though its for removal of the mast, it gives you most of what you need.

                    isnt there a thing that makes it retract when you open the trunk, too? i know mine does, but i have the factory spoiler on it, so it may be a thing specific to that cuz itll hit. of course, my head unit only extends it if i have the radi oitself on, and not cds, so it is usually down.

                    a haynes manual is probably your best bet, maybe find some factory wiring diagrams, just in case you have to run the wires.

                        Yes that retract with the trunk is governed by an extra relay in the trunk for CB7s with factory spoilers only.
