I developed a crack in my windshield last week. I have comprehensive that covers the replacement- no deductible
.
I wen't online to see what options there were in windows. The ones with the antenna in the glass were the same price from the local shops, so I ordered one up.
Meanwhile, I ran to the wrecking yard and looked for the antenna cable that has the in-glass antenna lead. I got lucky and found a Chevy truck with the glass removed. The dash was hammered so I just pulled it out of the way. I unscrewed the dash speaker and saw the top of the lead in the center of the dash. Two screws on the mounting clip and I had what I needed. $3-4.
I installed it today. Had to remove the dash pad. What
!!! The place to screw the cable bracket in were just two indentations and there was no way I could gget a drill in there to puch them through. Lucky for me I had a roll of 3M Double-Side Custion tape. The heavy-duty All Weather type in the Blazer console. Wiped the surfaces down with Wax and Grease remover and stuck the bugger in place. Window mobile guy come Monday.
Wish me a warm reception.![Oops! :oops: :oops:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
