Power antenna on 97 grand prix

Well not sure if a gran prix has every had one but I hate my antenna. My uncle gave me one from his t/a. Do you think it's possible to do this? There 3 wires that come out of antenna, I'm wondering were I might be trying to route my wires for turn on.
 


Do you have a factory deck? I don't know but I would assume one is the power, one is ground, and one goes to the deck to tell it to operate.
 
That's what I was thinking, just trying to see if it's been done. Maybe a tutorial or guide could be in the making
 
I figured it out, one wire is constant, one is ground and the other is the trigger. I'm just gonna wire it into the fuse panel for power and trigger it from the radio. Actually it was harder to remove the old one than it was to put the new one, now to find if I'm the only one in the world with a power antenna.
 


Dude I'm happy with my results but I mention but lol u will lose some trunk space on antenna side due to size of antenna. It's not alot just an inch or two
 
i wanna do it but i didnt get screwed over by gm w/ a masted 97 (rear window antenna ftw)

but i did get ****ed out of a sunroof

who orders a gtp w/o 1 option
 
Right I guess mine was optioned for hood struts and antenna but supply was out and original owner was refunded. This was in 97. My car has all options except what didn't have

Hey I got screwed out of HUD, but I put one in there. The sunroof is a whole different ballpark!
 


Yeah ii love my sunroof but I wouldn't attemp a install on that. Cutting a hole in my roof, no dice. I'm not bam margera but I don't have a Lambo either
 
You don't have to cut a hole in the roof. There are spot welds along the roof. Drill them out and the roof will come off in one piece.
 
I didn't know but I have fully optioned gtp so it's all gravy, And you gonna do a power antenna now? It makes the ass look better when it's just sittin there
