Title: Where oh where does the coaxial for the ariel cable go to...
Post by: Anonymous on July 1, 2013, 18:37
Hi there, attempting a fix of the aerial by fitting a second hand one from a scrappy. All good as got the old one hanging by the coaxail cable... any one know where it goes to and how I get to it to plug the new coaxial cable in. Fed up with trying to remove 12 year old panel trim clips and breaking them! AAARRRGHHH!    s:o :o s:o )   s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce:

The cable goes to the stereo, in 2 parts
Aerial to inside the rear bin, then joined in the middle, and down the center tunnel

you need to remove the rear bin on the drivers side to get to the join ,and to get the electric wires disconnected  

The white connector block is the aerial lead join

And the other electrical connections,(i think its the white cable with the covered plug that goes to the actual aerial ?)

I am forever in your debt... thank you. No more sweating or the pinging sound of broken plastic trim connectors!

AND most importantly I dont have to the listen the missus CD's any more....
