Rory 0 Posted June 28, 2003 This little slit appeared around my radio aerial the other day. Is the aerial only held on by this little flange? If so its about to fall off Can i remove the aerial mount without removing the roof lining on the inside? How easy is it? Anyone had this prob? I have unscrewed the aerial as a precaution to stop wind etc taking it off and half my paintwork Sorry my camera is poo. Cant afford a new one cos my car costs so much :cry: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted June 28, 2003 What I am about to say is purely based on fitting an after-market bee-sting so I don't know if it applies to the Corrado, but I expect so. The bit you are pointing at should just be a rubber/plastic base that the aerial sits in and is then bolted through from the inside, under the head-lining. The aerial should be ok - maybe stick a bit of black sillicon sealant in the crack to stop any moisture getting underneath - not really necessary though as it should be ok. Disclaimer: Any loss of aerial following VR6's advice is the responsiblity of the mug stupid enough to follow said advice! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 29, 2003 My seal has a slit in it too. It has no affect on the aerial's stability as it's attached by a substantial serrated nut that 'bites' into the roof skin. It will not get blown off by the wind and water won't get in. You can get the aerial by pulling the horizonatal trim off (go easy, fragile clip alert) and then GENTLY pull the headlining down without breaking the two tabs.
