Anybody know if I can use my OEM GPS antenna. Have factory Nav in 2008 C6 Corvette. Going to change from OEM Factory Nav to AVIC7201NEX or will I need to use the antenna that’s supplied with the unit. Thanks in advance. Jeff

Just to let you know with factory GPS antenna the MAP screen in less than three (3) seconds. It would take up to 20-30 seconds with aftermarket antenna supplied with the head unit. And yes they were both located in the same place just a little left of dead center of the inside top of the dash.

Wow, you lucked out finding that adapter. I had a similar issue with the XMRadio antenna in my Porsche, it would not fit the XMRadio tuner. Rather than cut/trim the Porsche OEM connector, I took out my Dremel and cut the outer housing of the XMTuner which was only $39. Worked like a charm. The satellite radio antenna was mounted on the rear trunk lid.
