Sorry, don't have one so can't help, but isn't ball part of base? If so, might be worth stating what features the base needs to have (GSM/Radio/Satnav)

I bought my ball separately from prodrive for my cdx estate and I think it was robg that said you could fit the ariel from a astra mk (something sorry cant remember).

Think I may have had the last two balls off of Prodrive about 18 months ago. I may have a base in the parts shed but it will not have GPS in it.

The astra mk4 1800cc elegance that I had ,,,had a similar set up with radio ..cd...and sat nav,,,so just maybe the aerial could be the same.....Chris..who runs ..c.s.autos....is on the net and he does loads of astra spares and a nice guy as well...maybe worth looking on his site, :-\ :y

I wouldn't recommend using the Additional Ball adjusters on the Estates if your using the Nokia Telematics or Phillips Phone Hu's as they totally mess up the Phone Transmit matching on the Aerial (VSWR).

If no Phone Feature being used, fill your boots.  :y
