Replacement Bee Sting Aerial
« on: 19 March 2008, 10:12 »
Morning all,

I woke up one morning a few weeks ago to find some tea leaf have whipped the Bee sting from my 16v! It's got a blanked out hole in the wing for the original aerial and I have a feeling it's an aftermarket fitment. My issue is I can't seem to find anything that fits it! they're all a fraction too small for the thread the base has!!!

Has anyone else had this experience?! I've tried to 'test fit' a few other aerials from other brands but seem to be getting nowhere! :(

Dave.
