Post Radio auto antenna lead?

I had my stereo stolen and they took the wire harness, the only wire I didnt really know what was for, was some wire that ran back to my amp and it's for the radio auto antenna lead, and i'm not sure what wire on the harness it was crimped to, anyone know. Thanks

Check the light blue wire with the white stripe. You can hook a multi-tester to it as an easy test.

The lead is used to power up your amps and power antenna when you turn on the system. So, yes, you need to have it connected. At least to your amplifiers. Since Camaros don't have power antennas you don't need to worry about that.
