Abstract
Exemplary embodiments are disclosed of vehicular antenna assemblies and methods relating to assembling vehicular antenna assemblies. In an exemplary embodiment, a vehicular antenna assembly generally includes a dielectric antenna carrier and at least one antenna coupled to the dielectric antenna carrier. The at least one antenna includes a lower end portion that extends downwardly relative to the dielectric antenna carrier. The lower end portion is positionable within an opening in a printed circuit board and/or positionable in electrical contact with a contact member along the printed circuit board when the dielectric antenna carrier and the at least one antenna are moved relatively downward toward the printed circuit board.
