Long story short, I removed my power antenna and replaced the mast only to find the relay was faulty
.
Now, I'm not sure exactly how the antenna was oriented in the fender as it's been out awhile.
Anyone have any pictures of the passenger fender removed with a factory power antenna still mounted in place?

Look around the clip of wires or computer wires if im right. See the 2 tiny holes around there? Well a metal clip would go there holding the antenna going up there.
I will try and take a pic of it later today.

I actually know how it mounts but the problem is I had taken the whole antenna apart to install the new mast. I might have the mast installed 180 degrees spun around which might not matter, kind of hard to explain. I can probably get it back in but if I saw a picture of it mounted from the factory it would let me know if I have it exactly the same or if I switched something around. The only difference I think is which side the antenna cable will mount to the mast, front or back side, depending how I installed the mast.

Thanks guys, I got it installed. I finally found my assembly manual which I bought years ago. Only thing I did different on the install was I put the bolts holding the antenna assembly to the main bracket through the other way, going front to rear b/c it was easier, kind of how the picture above shows but my antenna has two bolts holding it on and they are on the side between the body and the antenna.
