External antenna

Post by payaya »

Hey all,

I think someone bent my antenna while I was going through the car wash the other day! :)

Now I need to replace it. Never replaced one before, can you just get the a replacement for the antenna bit or it comes in a unit??

Thanks!

no you can just replace the aerial part.

Talking about external entennas, the one in the top middle of my rear windshield (outside temp censor?) has disappeared. The base unit is still there, but the arial isn't, can i get a replacement for it?

Can you actually buy the rear window with antenna and connect it easily to a car that didn't have the option?
