Damn you - I was looking so decided to buy one !!!!

mine was from ebay, pics are in the photo section, fits well too, no loss of reception either

Can anyone tell me how to get the standard arial out?

I've unscrewed it, and pulled it hard, but it won't budge!

 

[cupra-c_ya]

a long hard pull should do the trick..... excuse the punt

^ AS SAID, anti theft stuff

Not understanding why people buy these honda aerials. Just snapping the squiglly end of the standard one does the trick..Looks the same, doesnt affect reception. Its free and takes 2 seconds.

 

[paul26982]

wont it leave a crap finish from were its snapped off

 

[CupraJay]

Cant see it...I thought the same...As i was intending to get a honda one..and one day while cleaning, i decided to snap it off..and iv never noticed the area where the stub is gone...as its slightly recessed into the top of the aeriel. So looks the same.

 

[paul26982]

for the sake of £6 tho, and if it ever got nicked you got ya standard one too

 

[cupra-c_ya]

Thats one way of converting your aerial, if it works then why not hey

 

[CupraJay]

I know its only £6...considering i spent nearly a grand on an intercooler..and 2 grand on wheels..£6 isnt alot..but i still dont see the point as they look exactly the same...and its perfect.

Gues its just one of those things..Each to they'r own. But id rather have 2 extra pints at the pub. lol

 

[paul26982]

lol, never tried so can only give my view if you no what i mean, might give it ago later as i have the standard one still

Or you could pay the £22 plus vat I was told this week by a Honda dealer or just walk out and pay the £6

 

[paul26982]

dealers are terrible especially JAP, so expensive

I'm driving to France in a few weeks with a coffin full of snowboards on the roof. Does anyone know if the S2000 aerial is short enough to fit under a roofbox?

I got fed up of awkwardly bending the aerial on my last car to squeeze under so figure £6 is money well spent if it does the trick.

I bought this one. Looks great and no loss of reception just make sure you state seat leon as there are differing lengths of thread:
