Default C4 - Antenna Bypass Question??

Can anyone give me a detailed description of where to locate the wires to connect a switch to put the antenna down??

I've been searching, but came up empty handed

If anybody has any pointers on how to do this, please chime in.

Thanks in advance for your help!!

Just trace the wires from the antenna. Exact locations are different in vert vs. coupe and across years because the CDM moves around.

You could also look in your FSM to find the wire color you need at the relay.

If all else fails, the usual corvette places sell a switch+harness, which presumably comes with instructions.

Don't have a FSM yet, been tryin' to get one used - almost had on in the C4 FS forum, but somebody got there 1st

I really don't want to pull up the carpet more than I have to. I guess I'll just purchase the $2 switch from CC for $20, and make a thread on how to do it for the next Joe.

in all honesty i woudlnt be suprised if the kit that they sell has u go all the way back to the antenna to splice in. the kit midamerica sells looks like it has a decent chunk of wire to it.
