Hi all.

 

I've decided to finally replace my rather battered aerial on my 06 VRS as radio reception has now completely gone. I believe it is the 'triplex' aerial with the GPS connection as I have an MFD2 navigation headunit.

 

The aerial itself is this little number:

My issue is that I cant seem to find a direct replacement on Ebay etc. I also cant seem to find anything on the forum that quite matches the aerial I have. There are items that look similar on Ebay but only seem to be for earlier Octavias and Skoda models, for example:

Has anyone fitted one of the units on the link before (or similar), or does anyone have anywhere online they have purchased from, as usual I'm tryting to bypass main dealer prices as I'm sure this aerial will no doubt be pricey!

 

If there is an alternative to the OEM style unit then I may look at that as well but I do prefer the 'original' look if possible.

 

Cheers

 

Anyone?
