I've been (unsuccessfully) looking to make or find a one-piece antenna cable, Motorola at the radio/head unit, but for the life of me I can find no similar connector to what plugs into the antenna mount end. The only place I have found it available is in the OEM ($) cabling, and the garbage tier replacement antenna set on amazon. The latter is what I got about 10 years ago and it failed (I suspect just like the OEM) at the mount end where for some absurd reason there is a right angle bent at the plug that goes into the mount (dispite it being a straight shot through the 2 layers of the jeep body), and the inner "sleeve" that is crimped to the coax inner wire snapped from the wire.

It truly should not be this difficult to determine what type of plug/connector it is that goes into the antenna mount. Seriously.
