You will need three pieces altogether, the bottom corner mount, the extension and the scoop. The bottom pieces also come in steel or aluminum. They look identical so it really doesn't matter.

Oops. :oops: I see you need both, Steve at owensexport had the full kits a while back, he may still have some left.

If you are inclined to find seperate pieces, check by phone first with fair radio, there website is not current sometimes. I bought one of the $9 extensions last October and they told me they only had one left. Some of the other stuff I ordered on line was out of stock but the website still had an inventory of them. Another vendor I have had good luck with ( he also has nos mounts but won't seperate components ) is Mark Dodd/RAPCO parts in Texas.

I may have an extra, but got it from Tony Banks, so you might as well go straight to the source. I've had good service from Fair Radio also, but "fair" is the name of the company, and not a representation of the prices they ask for their products. Goes back to the old saying "price, quality and service, pick any 2 of the 3"
