Camaro power antenna?

I have a 2000 camaro SS and i miss the power antenna that my old 97 ws6 had. Anyone put a power antenna on their camaro? How hard is the swap? There is a few power antennas at my local junkyard. One thing i didnt like was that even if i was listening to a CD, the antenna would still come up. Any way to make it so the antenna will only come up if the radio is on? Thanks guys

I have an aftermarket headunit in my trans am, oem antenna failed a while back. I bought and installed an after market power antenna from the local advance auto and it works flawlessly. The only downer is that it did not work well with the stock head unit.

You can add a switch to lower it while listening to cd's

Power antennas only came on the Pontiac F-Bodies because

people drove those. People who own Camaros need not worry about that fancy weight gaining bull crap in their sports cars

i thought about getting one.. but a short antenna might look good too.. thats what i have on my cobra. it gets perfect signal. i bought mine but u can just trim the antenna and put the ball back on it. i've never been able to ge the ball off though...
