I bought this one at Circuit City&#8217;s automotive department. Remember Circuit City? My car is black, so I got a black one. You can&#8217;t buy the one I used anymore, but <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3eU8Ag8\">here is one you can use instead<\/a>. Amazon will tell you it does not fit a Tiburon, but it does. My original Circuit City antenna died a few years ago, and I replaced it with this one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_04.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_04_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 4\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_05.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_05_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 5\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Use the 10mm wrench to remove the rear speaker enclosure.

Then put the outside pieces on. Then tighten the outside pieces down with an adjustable wrench. Just tighten it enough to be snug, at first. You will need to be able to wiggle it around a little when you attach the inside mounting bracket.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_50.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_50_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 50\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Loop the bracket around the base of the new antenna, then use channel lock pliers to squeeze it tight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_51.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_51_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 51\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_52.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_52_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 52\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Use the right-angle ratcheting Phillips screwdriver to screw the bracket together.

Really, you should not do this until you have tested everything, but it is easy enough to take back off if something doesn&#8217;t work after you have hooked up all of the wires.<\/p>\n<p>A lot happens here that I did not originally photograph because I did it later. I snaked the wires under the carpet up to the front of the car, to the dashboard. I think I removed the rear seat and the center console\/arm rest (not easy to do &#8212; you have to remove half the dashboard), and ran the wire under the carpet along the drivetrain hump.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_60.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_60_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 60\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The power antenna has two hot leads: one to a &#8220;switched&#8221; source (usually the &#8220;antenna&#8221; power lead from your stereo, if it has one; otherwise, a lead on your fuse block that turns off when the key is removed from the ignition, like your cigarette lighter), and one &#8220;unswitched&#8221; source (something that always stays on, like your hazard lights). You can figure out which is which by experimentation, or with an inexpensive multimeter from Amazon. I used the sunroof fuse, and connected to it using a fuse tap (an easy to find part at most auto parts places).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_60a.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackgate.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/2003_tiburon_antenna_60a_tn.jpg\" alt=\"Step 60a\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I pulled the wire with the wire tap out so you can see clearly which one it is.

I actually went one step further.. I bought a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kdmstuff.com\/shop\/step1.php?number=2486\">TCS switch<\/a>, which goes into one of the blanks next to the dashboard dimmer switch. I modified the TCS switch so that it&#8217;s a &#8220;holding&#8221; switch (meaning that it stays in when you push it in, until you push it again), by taking out the little &#8220;holding&#8221; wire from another set of Tiburon switches I bought (the switches for heated seats). Then I hooked the TCS switch up in series with the &#8220;switched source&#8221; antenna power lead (the one that goes to the antenna power lead on the stereo). That way, I can keep the antenna down when I am listening to my MP3 player, which is most of the time, and only put it up when I actually need it, which is almost never.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is an attempt to recreate a &#8220;how to&#8221; I wrote back in 2003 on replacing the 2003 Hyundai Tiburon stock antenna with an electric, retractable antenna.
