aftermarket antenna fitment issues
So ordered this antenna from this guy off ebay, had good history, blah blah wahtever.
i'm just curious if anyone has bought and installed one of these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT
i couldnt get the **** to fit. simple as that. **** wouldnt line up right with the hole coming from the car. I think they assume these things are going on semi flat surfaces. But the instructions sucked and i couldnt get it to work, simple as that.
so im just wondering if anyone has any experience with this item...thanks.

What does this have to do with the OP?

Based on the auction it is advertised as a direct fit for nissans. If it doesn't fit, you're either installing it wrong or the seller misrepresented the product. He should provide whatever necessary to make it right.

I have had the best luck with aftermarket antennas when using the original OEM mounting hardware such as the antenna nut and the plasic/rubber grommet that sit directly on the car. Most of the Aftermarket antenna installation accessories are not very good.

taking a picture would be pretty hard but i could try.
i didnt really want anything that would be a hassle, i'll get my money back before i fight with this. i also didnt like the idea of having to drill new holes and all kinds of ****.
when i emailed the guy my issue he simply said return it. didnt wnat to help or anything. i gave him the part number and he confirmed that i had the right one.
ugh aftermarket **** sucks. i should just get something from the junk yard. too bad i dont even want an antenna anymore. I just dont want a hold on the back of my car. it'd be nice to have one of those small fin ones, or maybe one like beneath the surface of the car that works just as good.
tired of driving a damn walkie talkie

Been there, tried that. I've taken it to professional stereo installers, and they couldn't even do it. The things just not budging. There is no cable when I open up the motor assembly. For some people, replacing the mast is not an option. The mast is most likely broken inside the shaft.

plus i need an antenna somewhere.
yeah im just gonna return this crap and get a new mast or somethning. my mast straight fell out of mine when i took it out
