The parts guy at the dealer said he could get that for me too as a single item so I don't have to buy the whole relocate kit. Thanks Tenn Ridge Runner.

That is fine, or depending on how handy you are (aka how little you want to spend), if you refer to my earlier posting, buying one of each of those connectors, cutting off the 2 females and fitting these gives you the answer (which is where i was going originally), or take the short lead down to any car stereo fitting shop, show them the female termination and explain what you want to do. I am pretty sure he will have the connector there ready to go.

A minor word of warning, the antenna cable is coaxial type cable and is not as straightforward to join as normal cable, but equally so a bit of common sense gets you there.

Good luck
