Good product
Matthew from Parma, OH on 7/10/2025
2006 Pontiac GTO
Obviously we never should have needed things like this because they should have all been the same but Crutchfield takes care of this with a kit that includes all parts needed to install. I didn't even swear. Okay, I did a little bit it was because bugs were bothering me not because of the install.
Pros: Works, easy to intall
Cons: None

5 stars for functionality, 0 stars for instructions. This was my first adventure replacing a car radio, and it truly would have been helpful if ANY actual instructions had been provided regarding what to do with this adapter. I stumbled across a picture tutorial from a totally unrelated source that finally made it make sense. For anyone reading this, this antenna adapter's skinny end goes into the round hole on your new radio and then the car's radio cable plugs into the flat end.
Pros:
Cons: no instructions

Worked well and was a must for this install in a Mercedes. But with the Cruthchfield custom wiring harness and this little adapter the wiring of this stereo was plug and play in 5 minutes.
Pros: Nice product and a must have item for some cars.
Cons: None. It worked as advertised.

Tyler from Gordonsville, VA on 6/10/2018
1995 BMW 525I
Most factory radios use a standard antenna plus but sometimes you run into a case when the manufacturer changes the plug a now you need this adapter. I didn't even know I needed this and the employees at Crutchfield told me what I needed and explained why. This is a great product and did I mention it is free when you purchase a radio from Crutchfield !
Pros: It's a must have to change your radio It's free with purchase of a radio Inexpensive if you only need the adapter
Cons: None.....

Part was suggested for a 2002 lesabre install. the oem antenna cable has no extra length and use of this adapter on a radio that has the antenna port on the opposite side will result in poor reception. even though it is compatible in fitment the part is not recommended for this vehicle. find an adapter with 6" extension
Pros: Part is functional and fits both ends

Poor reception
davbeck from Sparks, NV on 1/16/2013
2001 Audi A6
It fits correctly with my vehicle and aftermarket stereo, however, I get very poor reception. From some research, I've found that the reason is that my Audi has a powered antenna, which this adapter does not accommodate. Without the power boost, I can only get one station, and spottily at that.
Pros: Fits correctly
Cons: Is not powered, and thus gets inadequate reception.

Not much to say on this. Works great. You need it to install a new radio in a Focus, CF sends it free, what more could you ask?

Works for BMW E36 (94 325is)
Scott from Austin, Texas on 8/1/2010
Works fine for the E36. The car had a factory trunk mounted cd changer and the connection for that is a large black wire that looks like COAX. For a few minutes I thought that the wire was the antenna lead and that I was in trouble becuase the connection was a 10 pin connector and the adapter wouldnt work. After a few minutes i realized that the antenna wire is the smaller black wire with a 90 degree connector on the end. The adapter fit perfectly and the signal is fine.

I wasn't sure which adapter I would need but it turned out to be this one. Hopefully this will help other Focus owners if they have questions about which parts they need.

Fits perfect in Mercedes Benz
Leroy from Arlington, Texas on 4/6/2009
Fits perfect in my Mercedes Benz. Scott, in customer service was very helpful and advised me, "if it doesn't fit you can return it." The reason for my skepticism was that Crutchfield did not have any info on my '01 Mercedes. Sure enough, it fit perfect. Thanks, Scott.

Works great in my BMW!
Andre from Rockville, MD on 4/7/2006
I have a 1996 BMW 328i and this antenna adapter fits perfectly into it with an aftermarket headunit. A must have for anyone with an aftermarket HU. Plus the reception is great, as good as if not better than stock.
