You mean the piece that the antenna screws into? That would be separate...I went on the website for GMC parts to make sure I was ordering the correct part so maybe you could look it up that way and then search for the part number! Hope that helps!

I didn' need it but yours could be missing. I also used locktite during installation.

This is a CB radio antenna, generally the antenna on the front of your car is for your stock radio. And plus this antenna is a lot longer than the stock antenna on any car.

It is necessary that the two antennas be isolated from each other - in a car, the steel of the roof does this so you would need to place some kind of steel barrier between the two antennas. Further, it is best that the external antenna be outside. My suspicion is that it will not work well even if you do all this.

I bought mine as a replacement for the broken antenna whip on my 2011 Buick Enclave. It was the correct part for my application, the whip having male threads and the rooftop antenna base having female threads. It would seem that this other customer purchase the wrong part for his application.

I used the tripod the old antenna was on. You can get one at RadioShack or on line.

Both the antenna connected to the radio and the magnetic antenna use a twist lock connection you remove the one I. The radio and connect the cable from the magnetic mount. I just run the wire through my passenger door but their is enough length to have it just about anywhere you want.

If the antenna is being used at your home QTH, then a pl259 connector and RG8 cable will do. You will need to create a mounting platform with a ground plane of some type since you will not be using the car as a ground plane.

Watch the YouTube videos for the location of the antenna, and BE CAREFUL. I used this kit and didn't need to replace the antenna, but it is common to tear the antenna/cable during disassembly. Now, you will most likely need a new "spacer" a.k.a. bezel.

you need installation kit to fit the radio and antenna adapter which you can buy at amazon.

Pull out the antenna plug from the radio and put that plug into the device and the other male end of the device in the radio. Or pull the plug off the antenna if it's easy to get to. The device has to go between the radio and the antenna. The device has a male and a female on it.

You should just be able to unscrew the antenna (mast) and put a new one on.

Hi Jim, I did not see a hole for the antenna. I have taken the antenna off the car due to doing body work.You may have to customize your cover. I am sure a small cut in the cover should take care of it. Make sure you sew up the edges.

as you may know their are two parts to that wire, the new antenna comes with a lead out of it and you can get a termination kit to fasten the coaxial again, as far as it pulling out all the way out of the antenna, I'm not sure.

Sorry hit send before complete You have to cut a hole in the cover for the antenna but they supply a round reinforcement piece of material that is suppose to be ironed onto the cover. Mine is not sticking so I'm looking for an alternate way to keep it attached

No special tools needed! Just find a spot on your car like your roof or trunk lid and make sure that your roof or trunk lid is not plastic so that the strong magnet will attach . If you install it on your roof run your CB wire through one of your door frame and behind your plastic panels going down to the dash and then under your dash. If mounting it on your trunk lidmake sure while you have the anttena mounted that you give enough space for the trunk lid to open and close also give some extra slack in the CB antenna wire then run the wire under trunk lid and through trunk and under the carpet of the car and up under the dash then plug into the back of the CB and have some fun !
