Instead of a powered antenna, I would like to use a hard wired antenna. Any suggestions that would fit a ES300 95?

 

Your easiest (cheapest) solution might be to just disconnect the wiring harness to the power antenna while the mast is extended. You will still have a working antenna but the mast won't retract any longer. Unless you are looking for something completely different?

 

Thanks Lexucan. I might just do that. Right now its on a little button I put under the dash. I rarely listen to the radio so its no huge hassle. It is pretty lame though

 

Does that mean you have to leave it extended??

 

No you can manually extend/retract it, it will just take extra force cuz your still engaged w/ the gears, but dont bend it or youre screwed
