Mine is on the driver side. It's good to finally see what your car looks like Mike. And I am also interested in a whip clip. Just a small item on the laundry list of what I need for that car.

I need to update the resto doc with the information about the passenger-side speaker placement. Looks like we've got both out there.

Hopefully Jim's source can get us a bunch of the antenna clips. I posted up a picture in the in-service section of a bunch of '87 cars, and there's a nice shot of the correct bracket (Mike C. has it on his restored '88). Interesting, also, is that the clips are angled over pretty far.

What is the "wood" looking material? If someone gets me the measurements or gets me one to copy I'm sure I could make some.

Here is Mike C.'s clip.

I was told once what the material is, but I can't remember. I have one we could use as a template.

If you remember let me know, that doesn't look that hard to replicate.

Here's the one on mine:

The metal bracket part is not 100% correct, I had to improvise as the one it came with didn't fit my car. The holder piece is non-conductive phenolic material like what electronic boards are made from.

Found it...old IE link on my old laptop. (I had to dig)

That appears to be 5/8 to 3/4 of an inch thick. If you CHP guys want to buy the material I would be glad to make them. The aluminum is no problem, I have plenty.

Thanks, Bernie. I can send you the one I have here to use as a template. I think it's about 1/2 inch in thickness.

Group purchase guys?

Is there a difference between the early and late? MAC mentioned he had to tweak his.
