Before attempting installation, you should verify the type and location of the FM antenna in your particular vehicle. If you have trouble locating it, consult the manual which accompanied your vehicle, consult a dealer for your type of vehicle, or consult a professional installer.
The FM Extender Cable should be placed inside the vehicle, as close as possible to the vehicle’s FM antenna. A test mounting should be done first using the included suction cup mounts to test the installation. Once an acceptable location has been found, you will remove the suction cups and permanently adhere the FM Extender Cable using the adhesive mounts.
To install the FM Extender Cable in your vehicle, follow these instructions:
1. Attach the suction cups to the FM Extender Cable in the positions shown in Figure 17.

2.In this step, follow the specific instructions in
a.Installation Instructions for Vehicles with Aerial Type Fender Mounted FM Antenna. For vehicles where the FM radio antenna is located on the front fender, the FM Extender Cable should be mounted vertically on the front windshield at the edge of the glass nearest to the antenna. (Figure 18)
For vehicles where the FM radio antenna is located on the rear fender, the FM Extender Cable should be mounted vertically on the rear window at the edge of the glass nearest to the antenna. (Figure 19)
Attach the FM Extender Cable to the section of glass closest to the FM antenna in a vertical orientation. (Figure 18 or Figure 19) The wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view.
