    E30 - Power to Mast antenna conversion

    Hey guys. Just got my first E30, a 1991 318i in really good shape. Have lots of plans for it, but right now just doing some minor cosmetic fixes and such. My power antenna was not working and the mast was broken, so I did a search and found a few threads on the conversion using the Metra AT-GM93.

    Well, today I went out to Pep Boys and they had the Metra CX-GM93 which I believe is the same thing since it did fit perfect. Maybe it's a part number made specifically for Pep Boys? Anyways, I used the kit from Pep Boys along with a universal antenna shaft that I thought looked alot better than the one that came with it.

    Looks alot cleaner IMO and hardly noticeable. Perfect!

    Looks pretty good but I hate the look of antennas. When my power antennna broke I just shoved it down and listened to cds. Now I've got the power antenna hooked to a switch so its only out when absolutely necessary.
    West German BMWs, they just don't make the same as they did before the wall fell.
    ^Case in point: Auto-Repair Technology. Everytime my car isn't starting or acting up I let it sit, sometimes for an hour, sometimes for days. But it eventually fixes itself.

        Naw it's not pink, just crappy phone camera.

        Yeah I am looking for some sleeker short black antenna masts. But this is much better than what was there!

        Suspension and wheels on the way! Woohoo!
