Very nice.
Did you come across the 12v and 12 volt ignition wire?
I am trying to install a car alarm.

Shipping was slow from mainland China, but there are limited options. If someone has a workaround or part number for this, please chime in!!

I have the same antenna connector that I bought off ebay where do you connect the blue wire? I don't have AM reception FM is good. help please.

Connect the blue wire to the remote turn on or power antenna wire. It turns on the amplifier thats built into the base of the antenna itself. Its basically amplifies the signal from the aerial and helps with noise generated by electrical devices in the car, ie: rear defroster
