Post picture of your aerials !
Im looking for pictures of aerials, i have a dab+ player in my car, and the signal is not very good in the car with front window antenna, so i would like to see how you have mounted your aerial before i decide to get one for my self, considering shark fin or bee sting aerial, but any type is interesting

Reception is awesome - not dropped out at all.
I removed the glass mount and smashed it with a hammer

I had two Kinetic 6003 aerials replaced under warranty. The last time I upgraded to a JVC Hal 2 aerial, and so glad I did. Reception is miles better.

Re: Post picture of your aerials !
Is it just an amplified am/fm aerial required or do you need to consider one with gps for nav etc?

This is a Celsus combo roof mount AM/FM/DAB+/GPS... had it installed after new head unit and DAB reception is an improvement over the factory aerial.

So I guess on this antenna you either use normal aerial connection or Dab connection to suit your radio? I guess my screen has been changed at some point so radio reception is very poor.
Where did you pick a live up from? Behind the radio or back end?
Thanks

I take it you guys have just dropped the headlining slightly and ran the cables along?

Hi all, new to here, I'm having terrible drop out with the DAB radio in my MK4 caddy and have replaced the OEM ariel with one with a booster, the reception is slightly better but not great, would anyone recommend a better one?
