What this part adds to the installation

• The 16-inch length gives this replacement mast its specified reach.
• Fiberglass construction is identified in Metra's exact product specification.
• Wire winding follows the shaft rather than a plain smooth mast profile.
• Twelve included adapters provide multiple thread-connection choices.
• The black mast offers a dark finish from its tapered base to the covered tip.

Match the mast to the existing mount

Match the original antenna base and thread before installation. Although the page refers to an application-tab adapter list, that tab currently provides no usable thread chart; specific adapter dimensions and vehicle fit are not inferred.
