Guys i got a Mazda 626 1992 which had Automatic Antenna, and i just purchased Cd Player for my car and there is not remote wire. So is there any ways i can hook it up with my Mazda so that the Automatic Antenna will work???

Thanks !

What kind of cd player did you buy? I haven't seen one that doesn't have a remote wire. But if it doesn't, you can hook up the antenna still. You will have to use a toggle switch and turn it on and off when you want to hear the radio.

What brand & model is your cd player? If you don't have a power antenna wire or remote turn on, you can run a wire to your fuse block & connect it to acc fuse.

if my memory serves me correctly a lot of the older Mazda's used a ground to activate the antenna, not 12V... and you have to use a relay to convert it..... when metering your wiring you may want to keep this in mind....
