Antenna part needed

[rowdie]

Here is a link with picture of the part I need. Have not had any luck locating the entire assembly other than new.

is that a basic hirschman? any year work??

[rowdie]

It is a hirschman. The antenna housing is a 3 pin on top. This is for the 500SL AMG so I really don't want to adapt any wiring. That is why I am looking for the matching mast shaft. I guess any 3 pin antenna would work.

I'll be out junking in the local yards today, looking for parts for the truck. I'll keep my eyes peeled for M-B cars and see what they have.

I'll keep you posted...

Thanks Ron and JP.

All I really need is the mast housing. It unscrews from the antenna housing. I can buy a new mast. The problem is the mast nut on top rusts to the housing. Just broke the nut on the junk mast.

I didn't see anything in the yards i went to today. I'll make a few calls later and see if there are any from around your vintage in the lots further south.

Thanks so much. This is what these forums are all about. Helping each other with knowledge and sometimes an it's sitting in my parts pile, it's yours. A big thumbs up.
