Hi,

I've just got an alloy aerial of ebay to start personalising my superb, and can't get the old one off. Does the tugging method actually work or will I have to pull back the headlining?

thanks

Give it a tug, works for me.

However don't expect to pick up anything with the alloy aerials, they are dire.

Had an alloy aerial on my audi(until it got pinched) and the reception wasn't too bad, but if this one is bad can you replace the old aerial or will it be permantly damaged

I changed my oem aerial for a S2000 one frome Ebay. It cost about

Thanks for the picture the aerial does look good,

whilst washing my car today we managed to get the aerial off but the pin is too short on the new one so cannot fit it yet :-(

Never mind we'll source a new pin soon.

This is indeed a problem with most of the aerials for sale in the aftermarket section, the Superb has a long thread on the OEM aerial to allow you to fold it flat when putting your car through a car wash, heaven forbid!!!

Unfortunately my car has been abused by the car wash by its previous owner but is now getting better treatment. We still haven't found a new pin yet but the search continues.
