Wanted 2001 406 estate aerial
Hi,
My Aerial isnt up to much, and needs replacing, however it is rusted to the base unit on the roof, so I basicaly need the whole thing. Anyone got one spare? Been scrap yards and the only 406's that they have all have the aerials at the front of the roof, but mine is at the back.
Cheers
Stu

Re: Wanted 2001 406 estate aerial
You should be able to get something very similar to the original from your LMF for about a fiver.
Take the old one out and take it with you, not worth fitting second hand ones. I wouldn't think the dealer price would be that bad but you never know.
Be careful removing the light fitting to gain access as they can go brittle over time and snap when you lever them out.

Have it orf, soak it in WD, give it a twist.
Then replace with coat hanger.

<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

I shall have to take mine off, but on 1st inspection it looks very similar. Shall try and look tomorrow, if I can figure out how to get the headlining down enough.mjb wrote:does this look about right?

I am an idiot, only just seen this message, although I saw messages after that. How much would you be looking for it?GingerMagic wrote:Hi, I'm stripping my 406 Estate in the next couple of weeks - it has a rear mounted base unit, but no aerial..

Hi, maybe £5 plus postage. I will see how hard it is to remove before promising it, will have to remove headlining - maybe at the weekend?
