After getting my radio installed in the dash I started working on an antenna. The 2 OEM ones I had were both bent and neither got a good signal with the radio. I went to napa and ordered a telescoping one. Got home and it wouldn't fit through the hole I had in the cowl. Also it didn't telescope down to the cowl. So I started thinking about what to do and came up with a hairbrained idea of combining the new with the old. Here is the result. New antenna wrapped with a piece of fuel line to act as a spacer to make it a tight fit in the old housing.

Here's the whole product. I still need to make a brace/bracket to support the cord end.
