Fitted my shark fin antenna today.
It's been bouncing around in a box in the back of my caddy for about a year.
So many DAB stations now, I'm spoilt for choice and it hasn't cut on in the one spot I always remember it did with the screen mounted antenna.

That's the main reason mine hasn't gone on until now.
I guess I've done so much work on the caddy recently, a 20mm hole is the roof is the least of my worries.

Great work going on here. The petrol conversion seems to be getting more and more popular.
Love the shark fin.

Seen Gtiwolf at DubUnit today.
It's nice to see vans we've converted come back to visit.
He brought me a new sticker for my fuel flap so I had to fit that.

The sticker for the fuel flap is a nice touch, I really need a roof mount dab antenna as I only get limited stations

I'm finding the MPG with the new engine isn't all that bad if I don't stamp on the loud and fast pedal.

My engine has had two oil changes in the last 2500 miles, the gearbox oil has just been changed, injectors have been out and serviced, fuel is shell V-power. How well serviced is your diesel, my old 1.6TDI returned 47MPG regularly on a fill to fill calculation basis.
