Is the factory antenna compatible with aftermarket HU's?

    OK...I will pull the deck this weekend and see what those white wires are connected to (if anything). I know the factory antenna connector in the trunk is getting power, because the POS aftermarket antenna the PO had installed was getting power from there.

    Thanks for all the input everyone...

        I just wanted to update this thread, and also thank German Audio Specialties guy for the help. I finally got around to pulling the head unit and discovered the two white wires were not connected to anything. I twisted them together and connected them to the remote trigger lead on the head unit. Bam!

        Although now I have another problem. The mast only goes up about 8 inches. It almost seems like the motor does not stay engaged long enough, because even with a little assistance the mast does not raise up past a certain point. Does this sound familiar or do I just need to order up a replacement mast?

            Mine does this. Although if I help it, it will go up further, but not all the way. And then I have to help it go back down...
