Windshield Antenna

Anyone know the correct name for the piece that you solder to the windshield that then plugs into the antenna lead that bolts to the cowl? I am at work and do not have access to a manual but want to get it located.

Also anyone have one or know where to find one?

Thanks, Shane....I have called a few glass places and they said it was not included. I thought it should have been included as well with the glass. I will call around somemore and see what I can come up with

They are likely thinking of the bulkhead feedthrough. I've replaced several of these windshields and the lead wire with plug is always taped to the bottom of the glass. It's part of the antenna wire in the glass, there's no place to solder it on.
