Muttland Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hi to all I would like to change my original manual radio antenna AM FM for a full electric one. What brand and model would be the correct one? Thanks to all Enrique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boydie Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 You will need to upgrade the radio as well, the standard (original ) radio does not have the required connections/power supplied to power an electric aerial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boydie Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Oddly enough, I have the exact same unit, there are two connections for the electric radio, the ariel and a power plug to activate the ariel when the radio is on and power it down when the radio, or ignition is turned off. I mounted mine on the front wing, if you select this location you need to remove the inner plastic panel to install it. Running the aerial cable and electric connections is a bit problematic, you will need a flexible plastic cable draw rod, they should reach the radio without any extensions but you will need to drill a hole for them to pass into the driver's (or passenger) footwell - make sure you fit a rubber grommet into the hole and seal it with silicon after.
