New Antenna from Spyderpops

[WEB-WVR]

How does it mount? The boot?

I am wondering this also. Do you have to remove the tuperware, get to the backside of the tuperware to remove nut and rewire/re-plug. Or can it all be done from the outside as with some of the other antenna replacements ?

Will this work to replace the long whip antennas like on my stock 2014 ST-L ?

Thanks !

This is what I got from Harvey


The antenna is a quick change out, using a 7mm open end wrench to get the old one out and then use blue/medium Locktite when you put the new one in. The grommet will slide over the antenna after you get it installed and I installed the adapter in the antenna first using the 3mm socket to tighten it all the way then screwed the assembly into the hole on the Spyder.

The grommet seems to be a little hard to get it snapped into place but if you push in the bottom first then you can use more force to push in the top. It really fits tight and flush. I installed 4 yesterday and everyone was very happy with it.,
