New Z06
Hi Everyone:
Well I just traded in my 98 Pace Car and bought a new 04 CE Z06. I have always wanted a Z06 and now my dream has come true. My question is has anyone ever replaced the antena with a power one. If so where did you buy it and how hard a job is it to do?
Thanks - Vinnie
Man this "Z" is Sweet

I got lazy... if you hook it up the easy way like the verts then the antenna is up every time the radio is on. I wanted to have mine installed with a switch so that when I'm listening to CD's it doesn't go up. I'm not great w/ stereo's/electronics so I've enver gotten around to it.

HI 98pacecar:
I would have kept the Pace Car Myself Except there was a slight problem, called Money. Only had enough for one. Since I always wanted a Z06 I could not help myself when this deal came up.
Thanks
