Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: MV6 Aerial Suggestions
« on: 08 May 2016, 17:35:41 »yea ok, thats a FM/GPS Base type, but you dont need a GPS (Satnav) if youve got a 2006, the Rubber base is furbed, you can make one out of an old car mat or something cut it so its flush with the base.If its a standard aerial (Radio) or Standard + GPS Base (Radio and Satnav), and it doesn't have GSM built into it (Telephone) then most VX whips will work, the only difference is the whip screw thread which do vary across the range and year, Corsa, Astra, Vectra etc.
Whats wrong with the base?, it may be just worked itself loose?
I have no idea what this does or does not do. In the front is just a standard CCR2006, no phone, built in Sat Nav or anything fancy. It's been pretty much like this since I bought the car, except that it did have an aerial which eventually came off. It doesn't show well in the photo, but it is not even pointing straight backwards. Previous owner had tried to do something with insulating tape.
This is it . . . .
whats the deal with the base, is the thread knackered, taped up bit?. looks like someone has just made it up really. just get yourself a standard FM Base and whip from somewhere, Omega Estate, Vectra etc, should look something like this.
or post a Wanted Ad in Test section and ask an admin to move it for you.
So I should just be able to remove and unplug the old one and plug in the new one ? No need to run a cable up the length of the car ?
One more thing I notice that many aerials are powered, is this ?
