I bought a used one off a 94 for my 95. Surprisingly the plastic connections don't match (maybe I got screwed). The antenna motor has a blue, red, and a black and the car has a blue, red, black, greenish, and a red/black wire. I'll have to cut off the connections and splice these together to see if the thing even works. So what is the right combination? Thanks

I wouldn't go hacking off the connector, I'd go find the right motor for the car. Hacking off connectors makes me a little sick to my stomach.

I understand. It's just that I got this one for $10 and THOUGHT it would be an even swap out. I can't find a 95 because the junkyards want a $50 minimum charge to even go in the yard. I refuse to pay that. Any ideas where I can find one or what to do?

Contact my friend Rob at DAT Enterprises in NY. He has a Nissan graveyard and has been in the Nissan business for 30 years. I bet he can work something out with you. 585-229-2088 tell him Devin sent you. or check ebay, the buy-it-now section has a ton of Nissan parts.
