Wanted: 1991 ZR-1 motorized antenna.

[boyking]

Hi,
Does anyone know of a source or have an OEM motorized antenna for a 1991 ZR1? None of the big catalogs carry one specific to ZR-1s. Mine has a broken nylon drive cable that winds up on the internal drive motor spool.

If I listen to anything it's CDs, but I want to keep things original.

Thanks for any leads!

Regards,
John

Bit pricey (use to be around $150) but below is an OEM antenna.

Another option, if you can hear electric motor running, just replace the mast.

Thanks Secondchance!
I scoured ebay too. Must not have used the right magic words. $350 for a new one is pretty stiff for something I don't really "need". Option 2 is perfect! I had mine apart and the nylon cable is broken, the motor works fine. $30 and FREE shipping. Tough to beat that.

I really appreciate your help. Thank you.

John

Hello Yun,
Do all years of ZR1's use the same electric antenns?

I have the whole assembly from a 94, it is broken. Its the same problem you have,

But if you run across the rubber grommet for a ZR-1 the antenna goes through in the fender; would you let me know.

Thanks,
Ryan

They are slightly different but any year antenna can be made to work with any year car.
Difference is early cars have external relay for the antenna and later cars have relays internally.
I still owe you antenna repair. You didn't show during the last WMD.
