blue parkers -

Basically anywhere..

Repco/Supercheap .... Just some basic brand

Autojoy.... BJ Union ones

Ebay .... Every single type you could think of

mind you half the price of everywhere else

Short ariels no idea, but i remember looking on 9th gen forums, they actually just cut the ariel, and then placed a little grommet like thing over the end, you no little plastic/rubber thing

According to them, no quality was lost, but to be hoesnt how much do you listen to your radio

you be looking for t10 bulbs

yes straight in

if you are looking on ebay look at something that has a few lights like 4 or 5 clip

But if i was you i would go with HID white, over blue, too much hassles in regards to police

Yeah reception wasnt good.

give it a try see what its like

the reception isn't quite as good as I had from the stock one, but when the bulk of my driving is done on the freeay between Wollongong and Sydney what do you expect. There are not many black spots though... it is still pretty good in the city.

u just got to test it out 1st

Posted

bad reception.. even in metro areas...

You in Sydney?

I come from Blacktown to Strathfield everday and I cant even notice a difference with the reception. Probably make sure you have it screwed in properly as it comes with different size screws. Make sure its making proper contact.

Got a Honda CRV one... reception is the same. Cost $25 from Honda.

i purchased one of these antennas from this ebay seller, and have not found any difference in the reception...

bearing in mind that i live in a rural area, (an hour out of newcastle) if there was going to be something wrong with the reception, i would be complaining about it... lol
