^ for some reason, I cannot see any pictures posted from a desktop (I can only see photobucket etc. images).. but thanks for the tip. I'll have to go to bestbuy and grab one of those. As for the regulator, I wired it backwards, as I had read that it was originally incorrect, but I guess not . I will switch that back and hopefully all of my problems will be fixed.
Here is my oem antenna (sorry for iphone pic) - orange cable w/ black head

And the kenwood adapter is much longer and they definitely don't fit together

oh and btw I got a kenwood dnx6140 I think.. is bypassing it hard to do? I grounded the parking wire but nothing else

You need to buy a ant adapter! its the same one used on later model chryslers.

^ ordered one online because I didn't feel like going to bestbuy since it's far away and I can live without radio for a bit

I still get this popping noise on my Kenwood DNX5120 (I think this is the correct model). Does anyone know if I need the regulator (I have the shaker 500 too)? I tried switching the blue wires from output to input on the regulator as well but still no luck. I may have connected the wrong wire since I can't remember if I found a "system remote control" wire on my kenwood, but i remember using a blue/white wire from the kenwood that said something like amp power or something. Is this the wrong wire to use? Thanks for all the help guys.
