Volvo S70 power antenna replacements
Does anyone know of a reasonably priced source for OEM power antenna replacements (excluding the dealership) for an S70 pwr antenna? I think i can perform the surgery, but I need the parts... Thanks!

fcpgroton.com is a great place for reasonable prices.
For S70: Complete assembly (OE Volvo) $115. Mast only (after market) $16.
Usually it is only the mast that needs replacing because the little plastic strip on the bottom end gets worn out. It's not hard to change.

If it is just the mast DO NOT TAKE EVERYTHING APART!!
Pull old plastic out while radio is ON. With new mast U can just feed the plastic in (with teeth facing correctly) while car and radio is on. Then have second person turn off radio while you keep mast away from your paint. Motor will pull the sucker 3/4 back in. Then CAREFULLY push down till flush with mount while radio is off.
There are some other steps with the mount that i can't recall but you get the idea.

The sprinklers that come on at 3am sound like crowds of people asking-- "Whatcha doin to that 850?"
if u do need the entire antenna, here is an ebay listing(mast not included). I hope this isn't your auction lol.
