using antenna w/ aftermarket radio
How do I do this? I have everything else wired up and it's working great, but the antenna is reverse polarity or something and only works when I ground the wire. The wire for antenna coming from the headunit won't operate it. I was told I need something called and inducter or inducer?

I think I found it; I need something called an SPDT relay?

yeah. my stereo came with one, and it's required to get newer equipment to work with the old antenna.
however, since my antenna was dead, I installed the newer radio shack model and used the onboard relay. either way, you'll need one ; )
you can get them anywhere that sells electronic components (Like radio shack), and they're pretty cheap.

you need a standard 50 cent 5 point bosche/potter brumfield etc relay. available at your local car stereo shop, youll probally get raped for no more than 5 bucks for one, even tho they cost them less than 50 cents but anyways
the ant system is negative trigger
the way you wire it is
85 to the power ant wire on your radio
86 and 87 to ground
30 to the cars power ant wire
bingo you just converted a positive trigger to a negative one
