I also finished installing the internal boosted radio aerial & it works a treat so very pleased with that
This is of interest... Speak more of this item please..
Its just an internal screen mounted boosted FM radio aerial so I can listen to the radio while out laneing without the risk of snapping my external aerial off
They just stick to the inside of the screen (I guess you could stick them to one of the rear windows & just extened the wiring & coax if you didn't want it in the front screen) I've then earthed it with one of the rear view mirrow screws & run/tucked the coax & power conection into the head-lining across the top of the screen towards the passenger side down behind the 'A' post trim & then along behind the glove box (this was easy as the glove box just pulls out)
Then just unpluged the existing OEM (what does OEM stand for
) aerial & plugged in the boosted one. I've then connected the power/feed wire for the boosted aerial to the electric aerial comand wire (blue I think) so that the booster is only powered up when the radio is on
It works really well & I get all of the stations that I want (R1, R2, Classic, BBC Essex, Magic etc) & more importantly I can listen to the radio while off road without the risk of snapping my OEM (there's that abbreviation again
) aerial
One word of warning though the first one that I fitted was 5H17
It turned out to be fubard & so not working correctly
So if you do get one rig it up on a temp job to make sure it's working before fully installing it
Oh & the other thing it was £9.99
