Our Product Research Team

At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.

Features

Compatibility: This antenna is designed as a stock replacement for select 1949 to 1977 VW Beetles, 1971 to 1979 Super Beetles, and 1950 to 1979 Buses (please use the Vehicle Selector to verify compatibility). The antenna is mounted to the side of the car body (from the outside) using two threaded shafts, held in place by nuts behind the panel. The diameter of the two required holes is approximately 1/2", with the cable attaching to the bottom shaft. The top support is adjustable; it slides up/down the antenna mast so mounting is more flexible. The 64" cable has a Motorola plug on the radio end and a threaded connecter on the antenna end. The cable also has a gasket for the firewall.

I have been looking about 6 months for an antenna to fit my 1940 chrysler that had a dual post side mount antenna at one time .This one from Crutchfield fits like a glove and looks great. I would recommend Crutchfield and this antenna to anyone . Thanks again.Crutchfield..... Jeff
