yea. thats a Antenna cable.. u can go to a local car audio shop, fry's. radioshack.. and buy a antenna extention and cut it and solder the antenna back. for an easy fix.. but if your car is an Integra... If you trace it down about a foot. there should be an extender piece .. which you are holding onto.. u can pull that out and replace it with another extended antenna wire... Good Luck...

Quick question before I go hunt for one, are they car specific or universal?

It's just like putting an end on TV cable. There's a center conductor and the outer shield. Center conductor gets soldered to the tip, shield gets crimped to barrel of connector.
