Re: Automatic Antenna (Mag Red Monster)
I hate how the C5 looks with the antenna up..Never realised how funky it looked until i was following one.
I'd love to find an aftermarket product that could by-pass the antenna when i am listening to XM or CD"s.

Re: Automatic Antenna (BLUTHUNDER)
Bluthunder,
After market device is called a "swtich". I think the pink wire is the hot wire and you just have to spice the switch in. When you are on XM or CD just turn the power off to the antenna and it will retract.
Mid Am Designs sells a plug and play harness for about $30.00 (www.madvet.com)

Just put mine in today...no more stupid antenna look while listening to CD's.
Switch: $3.99 from Rat Shack, and about .50 worth of wire and connectors.
