I just bought my 92 hatchback and the guy who had it before must of ripped the radio out as hard as he could. The radio antenna wire is not working, does anyone know how to fix this? Splice? New Wire?
Thanks

I think you might be able to pick up an atenna kit.....you might have to splice but not exactly sure on that because i never had to do anything like that.

look for an antenna kit. you can find them on crutchfield for about $13 and they get very good reception. When installing it, make sure you pay attention to which hole the wire comes out of, its near the kick panel on the drivers side. I know i actually needed a hanger to guide the wire all the way down.

That sounds like a good idea, I didnt know if I had to buy the whole antenna it self along with the wire. I'll check into the kits, sounds like the better way to go. thanks for the help guys.
