I need to replace my manual antenna without key (it is rusted away)
I found a few choices---which is the right one--or please let me know if there is another I should purchase.
Regards
Steven

I can safely tell you the ebay units are wrong. I bought one years ago and it's a mile off. As for what is correct that gets a little trickier. depending on how your car was optioned it would have either an automatic Hirschmann Auta 6000D which is near impossible to find in working condition or a manual Hirschman antenna from the same era like the one from Anthentic classics. What I do know about the original is that there is a Hirschman logo which looks like an "H" in a shield design and the top of the antenna has 2 slots for use with a small forked key. This feature may have a black plastic cap covering the antenna top it if you choose not to use the high security feature. I "Believe" the one from Authentic classics is the correct one but you might want to call them to be sure.
Auta 6000D:

Michael,
I ended up buying from:

Ask for Tom
They have 2 versions--one is NOS from Germany (the one I purchased) and a less expensive Hirschmann from China
