I have an after market Pioneer car stereo. I just realized my Antenna plug was disconnected from the car stereo( always listen CD only). I tried to plug it back in, but the antenna plug looks much smaller than the hole on the back of the stereo.

Are Mitsubishi antenna plugs special size? Do I need to get an adapter and if so are they easy to find?
 
It looks smaller, but plugs right in. Just slap it in there and you're good.
 
some eclipse models have two antenna plugs - one for the main power antenna and another for the secondary antenna embedded in the top of the rear window - the plug for the secondary is smaller and will require an adapter if you plan to use it instead of the main

Yep. you nailed it. Took out the stereo and looked back there for another plug. Buried deep under stuff was the other antenna cable! I wouldn't have found it(even looked for it) if you didn't post your reply. From there, it was so easy to fix, It snapped right in. In fact, I fixed the thing while waiting in the drive thru at Burger King.ROFL( the $1 BK burgers are good!!!!)
