Hi
I have a failed shark fin antenna - has this diagnosed. Sat nav says I am over 200 miles from my location and has been like this for a couple of months now.
Rather than pay the £500+ to have it fixed at a dealer I am looking for an alternative I could buy that will plug into the MMI unit in the boot side cavity
I have looked at buying a replacement fin from a dealership and doing a diy job (leaving it unpainted) but I don't fancy removing all the headlining to do it
I've searched various forums to find a recommendation for a cheap one from eBay that would sit in the boot and plug into the MMI unit but all I can find is links to items that have been recommended for C5 & C6 models
Has anyone purchased a substitute for the shark fin and got it to work ?
Also somewhat confused with the comments around needing a fakra connector....
Would appreciate any help or recommendations
Thanks in advance
