Got an original MK5 Golf one(Same as Lukes picture above) and it works very well....Infact just as good as the standard one...

Expensive I'm afraid Got quoted £60 + Vat from VW... Found mine at a auto jumble and paid £10 for it brand new in box .... And yes it bolts straight on..

The audi one is cheaper then, got quoted £50+vat and that does both the radio and gps.
these aerials are very good if you buy a quality one, the design of these aerials are off jet fighters for the uhf/vhf radios that they use ,so the range will be good so your reception should be good 2, but you get what you pay for!!!!
Its off the new shape TT and most of the newer big audis not sure if SEAT do it on any cars don't think so.

sorry for goin off topic. But where you get those rear lights from? They look cool on the car! I have standard, but I tinted em so they look better (black car + darker lights = cool)
whenever i follow i beeza wi "standard" rear lights, i always think they should be tinted, well if ots a blackone anyway.
other than lexus lights and LED style rear light, i didnt think there was an alternative. but hey, they look good
The reception will be significantley less with any aeirel which is smaller than standard. Without going into too much boring detail - for the best reception an aeirel should be half the wavelength. For FM this is about 1.5M. Most cars now use 1/8 length which would be about 40cm. The reception on these is far less but better electronics means that the signal can be amplified better.
To make a stubby or sharkfin work you would need to add an amplifier in to the circuit to get decent quality (might be built into some of them?)
