Nah, you waited long enough. The part was smaller than I was thinking it was. Now, if anyone else needs a fixed antenna assembly................ Pat |

I wish I had found it sooner. Three miatas worth of parts in two different locations and no inventory system. It can get tough to find things, or even to remember if I have them. The organization is part of what you are paying planet-miata for, but it figures that I would come across the antenna base within a week of your order. Let me know how the antenna you received works for you. The one I have is either from a 1991 or a 1996 model. Either way, it should work with your '96 model. I will hold it until you let me know, and I am still at the new email address. Pat |
