Replacement Aerial for MK3
« on: 10 December 2012, 11:34 »
The previous owner installed one of those silly shark fin stubby roof mount aerials which isn't amplified and has the wrong connector on it ( so they cut and electrical taped the 2 together )

I want to replace the whole thing with a bee sting type roof mounted Job but don't really want to use halfords cheap parts

Can anybody recommend a good quality Aerial ( preferably with cable to head unit ) that would do the job ?

Cheers
Stuart

The amplified Blaupunkt ones a very good quality,  I've currently got one of their DAB bases with a thick Polo mast on my mk3.

your VW dealer will sell you the real thing for about £30.
