Cable lead from antenna booster broken

Featured Replies

I have a 2000 Outback Limited wagon and put in an Alpine XM tuner into the car. I was checking on the integrated in-glass antenna when I snapped off the plug that runs from the Clarion booster to the radio tuner itself. Both Radio Shack and an audio store were not helpful in providing solutions for splicing in a new connector to the Clarion unit. Does anyone have an idea of a parts store that would have the right plug/coaxial cable to splice to the existing antenna lead from the radio?

since I can't see what you are working on its hard for me to tell what you need.

I can tell you that a lot of stores that install the radios that police and truckers use are going to have co-ax.

I have had pretty good luck soldering stuff like that together. There is probably co-ax sitting around your house if you have cable TV. If you need an antenna booster VW has an easy to install one that Crutchfield's sells.

On my BMW I have the stock unit in the trunk and a VW unit just before the radio head unit.

Take a look at the cable TV stuff at your local Radio Shack and don't expect them to be much help unless you get really lucky.

I think this should be a job for Blitz.
