you would have to use the wires at the antenna itself... either the ground or power would work... if you use the one in the back of the head unit.. when the switch was "on" - the antenna would go up, when switched to off - the antenna would go back down, you couldn't stop it, if you use either ground or power wire from the harness in the rear of the car, you would be able to stop it at whatever height you would like , it would be just a snip of the wire, extend it to where you want it in the car, put the switch in and run a wire back to the original loaction
