Title: Rubbery thing holding a wing mounted aerial - what is it?
Post by: slicksps on 24 February 2009, 18:41

Hi all,

I've just finished ripping out a rusty old stock aerial and replaced it with a slightly funkier electric one (I know roof aerials are much cooler, but then I'd have to fill the hole and I'm still new to this)

Anyway, the rubbery thingy which holds the aerial in the hole was badly deteriorated and split as I was removing it. I want a replacement, probably easy for people breaking cars but I have NO idea what it is to ask for or search online for spares!

Stupid question, first right answer wins a squashed banana :)

£60 for a new aerial?!?!? I just bought a new electric one for £21!

I guess it's the breakers yard for me too... The banana's yours. It's a joke but email your address if you want it. :)
