New LC owner.

[Rene]

Hi,
I just got my 95 LC, it has 292k miles but runs great. However, it's missing a couple of things. It needs the rear gate lock and the radio antenna. i bought the antenna at the dealer, but the lock was too expensive. can someone point me to a salvage yard that might have it? Also, i haven't been able to install the antenna because i can't figure out where it goes (it's a power antenna).

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Best,

Rene.

Thanks again for all the links to the parts. Any suggestions on replacing the antenna mast.
I tried going behind the fender panel, but could not figure it out.

Best regards,

Rene.

Antenna:
There is a 10mm bolt low below the antenna motor on the inside of the motor compartment. Kind of hard to get at but easy with an extension and some "wire pushing". Once that bolt is out the whole thing comes out the little hole with some twisting. Tricky part is the radio cable is attached all the way to the radio. A pain to replace. I would just replace the mast only. You can find electric mast kits on ebay and such or just pull the broken mast out and retrofit a non-power leaving the old power unit in place. Autozone $7. Get the skinny metal unit, it comes with several cylinder adapters. Choose the adapter that is the same size as your "hole" and just shove it in there. You will feel it "click" past a point. Mine has been in there for years functioning fine.
