antenna power lead
Hello, I own a 1997 C280 with factory stereo. I use a Sirius tuner most often and would love to install an inline switch to cut power to the antenna from the stereo head when it's turned on. This would keep the antenna in the down position and reduce general wear and tear ( especially in the winter months). Has anyone out there done this? My older 300E s ( 86 and 89) had a switch on the dash to do this. C Class cars don't. Does anyone know what color the lead is for the antenna power from the radio? I appreciate your help. Steve

Blue should be your antenna wire, when you take out the radio it should have a little plastic sleeve saying Antenna. You might want to double check on the color.
