Message	I know the cable needs to be plugged in for most units. I mean the actual embedded wire in the hatch glass. I took wire and shorted the 2 prongs within the connector together to draw signal from the rear hatch wire. Under normal circumstances, that antenna appears to be worthless and have no purpose since it requires the wire trick to even get it to work at all. ----------------------------------------------------- Never Play Leapfrog With A Unicorn!!! Do yourself a favor and just worry about your own car. I don't see what everyone is so worried about anyway. If someone else wants to perform a modification that you believe will destroy the value, cheapen the Z32 or whatever you can't sit on your hands about, wouldn't that make your tastefully-modified, white bread Z32 more rare and valuable? -- BradZ (FL) on December 23, 2007 at 12:19 PM The unicorn gets its revenge... -- Scotts94z32 on September 19, 2006 at 11:12 AM CLICK FOR DETAILS ABOUT BUYING A ZAMA POSTER!!!!
