Replacement antenna connector?

I finally got around to taking my center console apart and see what the *******ing thieves did. It turns out they cut the cable to my cd changer, the preamp outs that hang off of the deck itself and my antenna wire. GD rookies. Why cut all of this **** when all you have to do is unplug it?

Anyway, there is still enough wire from my antenna to reach the new deck. Does anyone know if they make the connector for the antenna wire that I might be able to splice back in? I know I can get a replacement changer cable.

Thanks

Not certain, but you might try crutchfields site. They have online live reps too who you can chat with....I know that if you buy an HU from them and you need an antenna connector, they typically supply one for free w/the purchase...worth a shot looking there anyway. Good luck!

Hah! I didn't realize that the antenna wire was in two pieces. I just ordered a new one from Ford. I think that will be easier than trying to find the connector and soldering it to the wire.
