2001 SS power antenna help

I am trying to install a power antenna on my 2001 Camaro SS. I have the 500watt Monsoon stereo but the car has the standard antenna mast. The new power antenna has three wires....green, orange, and black. When I look in the rear quarter of the car there are no wires there to hook to the new antenna. The only thing I see is the coaxial hooked to the standard antenna. I looked in the wire harness thinking they might be tucked inside but I found nothing. Do you know how I am supposed to hook this up?

Thanks, I will send that link to my email at work and print it off tomorrow! I see you have a chambered exhaust on your car....how do you like it? I have Talked to Tom Henry about getting it for my car but was concerned about any excessive interior noise.

I love it. My girl hates it. she said it makes it to hard to talk on the phone. With the M6 you have complete control over the volume. The only reason not to get it would be if you plan on headers and no cats then it would be to loud.

It is kind of loud inside the car though? Have you ever run your Camaro in the 1/4 to see if the chambered exhaust gave you any extra boost?

I'm 42 and I don't think it's loud, you can hear it but not that much. I just down shift when she picks up the phone. The car is not a DD for me so I love every time I drive it.

My car is an automatic so it may a bit worse. Mine isn't a DD either so maybe it really wouldn't be that big of an issue. I have exhaust on my truck and it resonates at about 30mph in OD, I always have to pull it into D, and it does it again at about 55mph. I am 45 and it drives me nuts, I am not 20 anymore!!
