Hello, does anyone know where I could find that cheap plastic part that fits between the antenna nut and the car body? It's been discontinued. I have a 92 sc

Maybe try going with a Supra one? they are the closest in terms of the body shape from the era :/

86392-14100 act fast before it too goes obsolete

Thanks. Hmm not a bad idea.

Interesting that the "Ornament" is going obsolete now...
not trying to cause a panic or anything, but it's time to start stockpiling these parts before they all go obsolete

but then again, the OEM windshield has been obsolete for a few years now I believe, I wonder what else is obsolete

spdim

ha well no Lexus dealership or their suppliers have that part in the entire US. Even internationally. So might be a good idea

Oh also, new antenna retracts a little after the radio is turned on unless I hold onto it. It's properly installed but it isn't oem. Easy thing to find

When you first turn on the radio, the antenna will extend to its full length, then will retract slightly depending on the radio station you are tuned to. It will fully extend for stations closer to 87.9, then retract slightly for stations closer to 107.9.

Really? Interesting. So the smaller number radio station requires more bandwidth (longer antenna) and so forth? I don't know if that makes any sense. Thank you for your answer.

That's good to know, I've heard mine adjusting while changing stations and thought something was wrong with it.

Why yes!

Flip to an AM station and see what happens.
