    Looking for GPS antenna part# 86860-0C010. Bought a 2015 Entune Plus head unit for my truck and swapped it out with my 2015 base touchscreen. My purchase didn't include the GPS antenna. PM me of you have one or know someone that might be able to help find one. Any help would be great so that I can get this swap done. Also if anyone knows where this antenna is mounted I would be very grateful to know that as well.

    Thank you!

    antenna is mounted on the roof, but the one that came with my radio when i did this swap was short so i left it behind the dash

    Thank you for the help. I figured it went under the dash somewhere since it looks like the cable is short. Does it mount to a bracket?
    I just need the HD Radio and weather to work. Don't really want the Sat radio. I was more interested in the apps and the ability to update firmware also.

    no no bracket, i think i double tapped it to the middle of the air vents closest to the top of the dash (but from the under side) if you get what i mean.

    GPS antennas and sirius or xm radio antennas are the exact same. I have 3 identical magnet mount antennas on my truck, 1 for xm, 1 for sirius, i for NAV. They are interchangable. The only difference in the one in your pic and the current sirius and xm antennas is that it uses the old / original style plugs. Just find an old sat radio antenna from the units that had the module you installed like under your seat and the little LCD panel wired up to the dashboard to control it. (most likely an audiovox or kenwood brand) Those were used about 10-15 years ago, they are dirt cheap and should fit.


    ---- edit ----
    to be clear i have aftermarket in dash NAV, but antennas work the same :)

    Good to know as I am interested in this as well. I have a few Sirius antennas from past Infiniti G35's that I have owned. Am checking and will post up pic of what the plug looks like

    I would be interested to see the plug. I am not having any luck finding and OEM one here or anywhere for that matter. Does anyone have a part number or link to an aftermarket one that would work just as well?

    Sorry for the delay, long week. :(

    I got some pics for you comparing the OEM plug to a Sirius antenna plug. The plugs are obviously different but as discussed, they are a mini coax cable like a smaller version of your home DirecTV or cable TV coax cable. Indeed the issue may simply be the end plug.

    My Sirius antenna has a 90* end plug and doesn't have the reach to check the fit to the radio GPS port. Would be great if there was an adapter that went from the white plug to a female socket that would accept the Sirius type plug. Scions and Tundras have Entunes and there may be some compatibility there as well as Lexus. I'll do some more searching but this at least gives you a closer reference as to what you are looking for.

    The main difference I see in the other models antennas out there is that this one has a 1/4 round shape that makes it unique. Other connectors are female like this one but are square shaped.

    Thank you for the reply and the pics. :thumbsup: I just wrapped up a purchase on Ebay for one out of a 2014 Camry. http://www.ebay.com/itm/371417542570?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
    I was told it would work just the same so i am going to give it a shot. Has the proper connector. I need this for the weather portion and clock of the entune plus to work. I did the install of the head unit yesterday and that went well. I used a mini Terk XM antenna I found on Amazon and just took off the plastic connector and it fit nice and snug to the head unit. No tape or glue required. lol All is working well and all the stations come in well, I worked the antenna wire between the defroster vent and dash and just left antenna on the dash at the bottom of the winshield and used a bit of 2 sided tape to keep it from shifting.. Here is a link to what I used for the XM. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009J6PYW?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00
    Thank you for the help with this and the pics help a lot too.
