FD Antenna

[<--rYaN-->]

Has anybody replaces there FD antenna with smaller ones? Mine has been broke since i got it and i popped down to mazda and ordered one, but when i got it, fully extended it looked about 1 meter long, would look daft i thought so didnt buy it off them. Nipped to halfords and they had some minature masts that are supposedly universal, anyone know the dimensions of the FD mast?

Anyone replaced it with a smaller retracting aerial?

Also when i tried to remove the aerial motor once upon a time it would budge after removing the 2 screws because of a thick black cable coming out of the bottom? How is this removed as i gave it a pretty hard pull a few times and it didnt budge! :confused:

cheers

why not replace it with a bee sting???

Quite easy to do, but some drilling is required, dont think ive seen a rex with a beesting aerial though.

Thx

i did think of that but i like the hidden look of retracting aerials and it seems too much hassle drilling etc to put another aerial in that i could just replace easily hopefully
