Sharkfin antenna identification

[vicnation]

I need to replace a physically-broken shark fin antenna on the roof. I tried looking up the part number on a GM parts online sales hub and there are 4 options ranging from $62 to $165. How do I identify which one I need?

It will depend on what options your Yukon has. Navigation, OnStar, Satellite radio, etc.

@915_Tahoe might be able to help if you give him the last 8 digits of your VIN.

Thanks! The last 8 digits are 6J160873.

Vin# calls for 2 antennas, must remove to determine which color the connector is.

$264.36
Gm#15194280
With white 3-cavity connector

$300.09
Gm#25815079
With gray 3-way connector

Thank you! How difficult is it to drop the headliner enough to access the mount and connectors?

Do you have a sunroof? If so, remove the trim piece that goes around the opening and you can pull it down enough to get a look.

I would look for one at a junkyard. I' sure you could find one that is still in decent shape. Maybe a little fresh paint, if the finish is weathered...
Less than new, I would expect.
