My hunch is that maybe a power antenna from older model MB's might be more likely to be compatible than for newer models or aftermarket versions. Unfortunately, power antenna's for the older models seem to be becoming far and few between. They're no longer available for my W201. You might check with the MB Classic Center and see if they have any recommendations for your antenna conversion. That's just my 2 cents. Good luck with your conversion.
Thank you! I found an original new Hirschmann and purchased. I'm replacing the wood on my dash front at the same time, so hopefully it goes well. My mechanic is working on it all as we speak. It's a pain but will be great to have new wood and hopefully a working power antenna! Thank you for your 2 cents.
You're welcome. Where did you find your antenna?

Thanks so much for the link. Unfortunately, nothing for my MB.
Bummer! Good source however.
Update. Power antenna installation complete and it looks and works GREAT!!!
