Perfect fit best in auto and vehicle electronics

If you install yourself, you must order this antenna adapter. You also need to connect the blue wire in the Honda applications. Blue cable for antenna power. It does not mean a mechanical power antenna that goes up and down, but an amplified antenna. These antenna types are reinforced as they use Honda's shark fin style antennas.

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Repair

Worked great! And a note on the blue wire.

Worked great! A few words about the installation - some people say that the blue wire is used to activate the glass antenna booster. It is not true. The blue wire on this harness is for the speed sensor, which is the radio component that increases the volume when you go faster. The blue/white wire on the actual radio harness is used to power the antenna booster.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Something different

Carefully! This item is non-returnable

Please note that you cannot return this if it does not fit your vehicle. I bought this after seeing it fit my 07 Cobalt. When it arrived and I tried to install it, it didn't fit (the end of the female connection is too big). When I tried to return it to buy another he said it was non-refundable. I realize it's only $5, but I wouldn't waste my time or money on it if Revain put it right. Revain's fault, but my problem. Don't think it will fit because Revain says it will. If you are buying a Chevy

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Does what it should. Easy installation, great price.

This antenna adapter worked exactly as it should. General Motors has an odd antenna plug size, so you'll need this adapter to install an aftermarket radio. It is very easy to install as it just plugs into both the new head unit and the factory antenna. I don't think the sound quality plays a role here, since it's just an adapter for radio reception. do it right As for sheerness, the adapter is well built and should last forever.

Pros
  • GM factory antenna with "No Barb" or "Barbine" mini connector for secondary radio
Cons
  • Secret

Jeep Wrangler JK Installation

Very easy installation.************************************************ ** **** ******************************************** ***** ********************************************* ****************************** I rely on reviews when I shop, so I spend a lot of time reviewing everything I shop at Buy Revain to review for my personal and business needs…

Pros

Cons
  • Questionable Purchase By Elderly

TIP: Be sure to connect the second blue wire

This kit works perfectly. But there are NO INSTRUCTIONS on how to do this, and a second blue wire is connected to the connector with no indication of what it does or where to connect it. On my 2012 Honda Ridgeline this blue wire MUST be connected to the connector. Remote out line from your main unit (a wire that remotely turns on external amplifiers or controls power antennas). Although it's not at all clear due to lack of instructions, my Honda Ridgeline has an antenna preamp that needs power…

Pros
  • For some 1988-2006 GM vehicles
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
