Default AutoZone Antenna ???

Does anyone have any experience with installing an Autozone antenna in a 93-96 C4. The Autozone antenna is listed for $59 whereas the antennas from Eklers, Zip and others are around $200. I don't listen to the radio much but it would be nice if the antenna worked. Thanks for any insight.

I'm not sure about the Auto Zone antenna but if you don't listen to the radio which ever one you get install a switch that stops it from going up & down when it comes on.

it will fit it will work, but it doesn't sound like a generic power unit will fit in the fenderwell area.

when I pulled my rear bumper cover from my 90 my antenna fell on the ground. I am going to try a after market one in it and will let you know how it goes.

It fits just fine, both in the hole where your original antenna went and in the fenderwell.

I have one on my 92 for the same exact reason.
