Title: Snapped ariel on scorpio ultima
Post by slimspider on Aug 24th, 2006, 12:19pm
Blast - have snapped off the ariel at the base so just the base left on top. I have tried joining it up again but bad reception now.  Before I start exploring wildly (looks like the trimming of the roof inside needs to come off) anyone got an idea how to replace the ariel.  
Alos anyone got an old spare to sell   ???

if you need to fit a new aerial lead as well tie one end of the new lead to the old then gently pull the old lead out, other wise you'll spend hours trying to feed the new lead through....

Blast realise now that i as well need another black base bit of the ariel that fixes to the roof as the metal rod bit that the new ariel screws into is snapped off in the old ariel.
Anyone got one of the black bases to sell?
