According to GM, the bracket is not sold or serviced separately - it is part of the power antenna assembly.

Oh and BTW, that Mustang you test drove kicks LS1 *** (see signature).

You may need to find a Firebird in a junk yard. (It's a sad thing.)

on the blackcamaro.com website, the guy mentions its a 'firebird antenna'. Can you possibly find this on a firebird at a pick'n'pull somewhere? i bet its dirt cheap too..prob get the whole assembly for $20 or something and that way you'd also have spare parts.

*lol I just read the post above mine..haha. but yeah pnp's are literally THE best source for parts..as long as you have a car thats older like fbodies..they are big here in TX so they unfortunately end up at junk yards a lot

Did you get GM original part number 10282646?


Item #10 is listed as:
10282646 ANTENNA RDO PWR (INCLS 1-4, 6-7)(INCLUDES ANTENNA, NUT AND GROMMET)(AC-DELCO #10282646).

Item #6 is the bracket and is listed as:
N.S. BRACKET, RDO PWR ANT (PART OF 10).
(N.S. means Not Serviced - i.e. not sold separately).

It might be worth going back to the dealer and asking why the part you received was incomplete. (Of course, the junk yard could end up being quicker.)

Thanks everyone. I'll check PNP. I have a feeling who ever needed a power antenna would of took it with the bracket as one unit already. I got the antenna off Amazon after cross referencing the part number. GM issued a new part number for the antenna #19245455. It was around $160 (free ship) than some on ebay in which not all included the bracket.

I did however find a nice cap in the mean time. I call it the "antenna delete mod" Fits perfectly and looks nice. I almost wish I would have not purchased the antenna and just used the cap the entire time.

You can also do what I did and just wait until the next high school girl in her first week of driving scrapes up your fender and then have the body shop weld up the hole.

So I went to PNP today and got the small short bracket from a 98 bird. The bracket wouldn't fit my '02 Camaro. I'm still on the hunt! I need the one pictured in post #1.

I'm getting ready to do this to my camaro. Does the assembly come with the drainage tube or do I need to get that from the J-yard too? I already got the bracket from the j-yard.

sjsingle1 did everything come with the box you ordered?

That part number was $137 through GM Parts Direct..

Mine did come with the drainage tube. However I don't want to drill in the side of the fender lining where GM did. I got a new hose and grommet from Lowe's. I will drill a hole in the bottom of the body. Did you get the long bracket in post 1 or the shorter one?
