Radio antenna options

[Boobouna]

Hi all,

I just bought a 1975 3.0Si and noticed there is a hole for a radio antenna (most likely not from factory) that has been filled with a rubber seal. That seal has perished and i can either put another rubber cover over the hole or actually put an antenna in. I would rather put an actual antenna in so was wondering have any of you had luck with an aftermarket antenna they wish to recommend me. I would prefer it to look classic in line to what the factory one looked like.

I installed one from eBay. It was a very close match to the Hirschmann that wouldn’t retract. I ended up using the “H” stamped piece and it fit well enough for me.
If installed on front fender, note that the inner fender comes off with five or six sheet metal screws. Clean it out while you’re in there.
Cheers,
Rich
