Radio Antenna Q

Hi guys, if I replace the factory stereo with an aftermarkets head unit, will the antenna still come up everytime I turn on the unit?

Thanks.

In most cases yes, maybe low end machines don´t have the facility but on better ones you´ll find it.

You need to check the head unit you are planning to buy. They shall have an Antenna out put which is wired to the connector. And if your present antenna is operating when you switch on the radio, then the wire to the power antenna are already existing, and just need to have a head unit which has the proper output to control the antenna.
