Thanks. I had a feeling that this could be a nightmare. Thanks for keeping me sane & giving the mechanic in business. So glad for the warning !!! 🍻

[@Ashoud_Anobetah]

[@davide.anderson8507]

Thank you for making this video.
Now I know what level of stoicism I need to achieve before running that damn cable tomorrow...

Np

Thanks man.... lost my antenna cable lol.

[@victorrosales1932]

Very good video.Can you cut the antenna cable under the fender & use wirenuts or use solder to install the non powered (or after market) antenna?

[@itsyoujitsu]

thank you!!!

Am I the only one that felt the love with tools and parts splayed everywhere? Welcome to our world. We get it done though...Michael Jackson - You Are Not Alone

[@CarlosPradaRUn]

It helps a lot, although it also helped me think about having the work done by an audio installer or someone likewise

[@TheRealThomasPaine1776]

But, can you get it out? I pulled the glove box off and saw all the air bag stuff, but once you find or see the green markings, will it actually come out, or is it packed into a rubber loom with other wires? Well, I guess I'll know in a couple hours

[@macdreviousdapimp6004]

So it’s a first gen taco antenna they installed

[@fernandobatres3729]

where can i power my antenna cause i dont see if you connect the battery

[@ericseven711]

anybody knows if the 3rd gen 4runner antenna fits in a 2nd gen ?? please

[@Datsun7705]

Where did you get the antenna from? My power antenna broke...

[@NutzAboutBolts]

We got it at the dealer oem, it’s not a powered atenna.

[@ThePaganater]

I was able to get one from the dealer. I asked for a 1st gen Tacoma manual antenna and it fits.

[@davescheer5038]

Where is the power wire to stop it from going up or down , my antenna is broke but makes a loud noise can I un plug the power wire ?

[@john_duncan]

you could cut the cable and solder it on to your new antenna and not have to run all that cable.

[@TheRealThomasPaine1776]

I thought about that, but the antennae has a plastic core, and wires around it. I'm not sure about solder. ??

[@andyz3925]

ALL that to replace an antenna? Too much for me. I'd loose myself. I guess I'll be heading to my local Body shop or is a mechanic?

[@ryanschlanser1657]

So what did you end up doing?

[@jamiemerkler6825]

I just want to replace this stupid, useless power antenna for an aftermarket stubby one without completely disassembling the entire vehicle. can anyone answer if it's possible to keep the power antenna assembly installed and just replace the antenna mast?
