i'd say if its better with the half oem one its gotta be the citroen one and you cant really damage anything tugging the oem one off.

Hello,

I'm sorry I beg to differ, very high chance of mashing threads in base unit, being an antitheft deterrent, to completely tug/remove aerial stalk.

I feel for you mate. I absolutely fooking hate it when people can't respect my or anyone elses property.

I know what you're going through. When I was 17 I had a *ahem* Rover but it was my pride and joy. It had gorgeous, well polished/waxed bright red paintwork, and I did lots of tasteful mods to it and yet it got kicked, scratched and all sorts regularly. It's ridiculous...

Chin up, from every bad there will come a good

Best wishes.

Sorry the stubby lost your reception mate..

I bought one of the older Sharan Replicas a couple of years back and it works ok, but not as good as the original and I'm on London so quite flat. I'd hoped the Citroen part was a better alternative but it sounds like it's not.

If your still planning on replacing the snapped one, have a look in the SEAT part sticky.. they do a 3/4 length version of the original.. so still factory quality but a little bit shorter.

I think I read somewhere that all the VAG cars still with antenna's have them fitted now.

to be honest the look/size of the OEM aerial was not a problem......until it was snapped in half

having seen a few people say the Citreon one was as good, and one was going cheap, i thought i'd give it a go

no score.

you live and learn - however should someone want a stubby look and isn't bothered about the radio the citreon one does the job superbly!
