Re your answer about poor DAB reception. Does you reply about DAB also using the rear window tracks apply across the range? The reason I ask is that I had a Sony DAB radio fitted to my wife's Mii to replace the CARP standard one (it was a showroom purchase so we couldn't spec the OEM DAB). The reception on DAB is not up to spec even thought the the garage fitted what they called a "bar" aerial above the passenger side headlining. It didn't work at all until they fitted this device. It doesn't compare to the DAB fitted in my Yeti so I wonder if they haven't connected it correctly?

  I take it the standard Yeti DAB requires that rear window aerial to be up to spec.
  I have heard of stick on aerials around the front screen but don't know how good they are.
  I am well impressed with the DAB reception on mine once I learnt that you pick the station from a region list and putting it into memory and not by tuning in.
  The sound is so much clearer than FM.
  I have not noticed if non DAB built cars have the vertical tracks in the rear screen.
  I would have thought that an after-market DAB radio would come with a suitable aerial.
