Hi guys, my aerial has been playing up lately and I think it's because the rubber has perished leaving the metal inside to turn rusty, Can anyone tell me how to remove the old one ???? Cheers !!

screw it from underneath
reach up under the dash
brickwerks sells replacements or get an interior windscreen aerial, I got a blaupunkt one from fleabay which has a much better reception than i had on the standard

If your aerial is in the normal location - just below the corner of the windscreen on the nearside - you can get to the nut holding it in place by dropping the glove box and reaching in under the dash (shine a torch in there first to see what you're aiming for).
I replaced mine last year with one from Brickwerks - works great now!

Cheers Neil but mine is on the driver's side, I'll feel up around to see if I can get at the nut, Nice 1
