Title: Aerial Problem
Post by: funkyfive on 19 May 2009, 21:37
I have just installed a Alpine CDE-9881R but the aerial does not fit, can any one help or advise?

Issue number 2, does anyone know how to wire up the electric aerial?

Option one looks good

But what does this mean on there website?

"Aerial adaptor converts original aerial on VW & Vauxhall vehicles to standard aerial plug.

IF YOU ARE USING ON VW OR SEAT THEN YOU WILL ALSO REQUIRE E118 AERIAL ADAPTOR"

Nah mine is actually a windscreen mounted aerial, that has the silver long pin at the end, that goes into the long black bit of that adaptor and the circular bit goes to the headunit :)


Not a bad price either at £1.99 delivered :) I paid £6 for mine :( from Halfrauds lol!

I've got the Alpine 9880R headunit with 120GB attached.


Infinity Kappa 6.5cm components up front.


Infinity Reference 1250 12" subwoofer.


All powered by a JBL 1004e 4 channel amp. Plentyful volume and sound for me at the moment, but will be looking to upgrade to a 2 channel amp for the comps and a mono amp for the sub eventually :)

Sounds quality, where did you get your Infinity kit from?
