Anyone aware of a sturdy replacement am/fm antenna for the standard LR manuel antenna? I would like to replace as this one is on its last legs. I've seen black, rubber looking ones that wook like they would be a lot sturdier. Any suggestions, websites, brands, models? Thanks in advance everyone! | ||

I got mine from my local Auto shop,there was no drama. Just picked 1, I lost my standard when I went Bush bashing. Noel  | ||

That's exactly what I'm looking for! When you say "auto shop" do you mean a parts place or a garage? | ||

Greg, I got mine at Discount Auto Parts, I believe you have a similar outlet in the U.S. Since I have seen them at the BP garages Too. They seem to be quite conmen once you've managed to get one :-) Oh and fitting, you will need to un pop the inside plastic wheel arch cover. It was 10 months ago that I fited it so Iv long since tosed Any info sorry. Noel | ||

I used to have a rubber one....but it did not work so well. I have a good electric one now and I am very happy. Does your rubber one work well? If we listen to tunes off-road its always on CD...eclipse makes a very good CD player...and the electic just retracts. | ||

Greg, Its an Aerpro, AP102. http://www.aerpro.com/home.php4 Dave, I would say it may not have the pull that other conventional antenna have but thats ok by me,it works as well as my old stock antenna :-) When I,m in the bush I'd rather listen to my own CDs. Or eaven better turn the music off and listen to my Truck. Noel | ||

I have the same one Noel! It came on my Disco when I bought it. Reception is fair....works about the same as most. And it's great for off-roading! Fun to watch it bend when you are on the highway too!  |
