hey guys anf gals.
i managed to break my aerial today on my 14a, and was wondering is there any replacements that have, like a stumpy aerial, that will fit straight on? reason for going stumpy is because i have a carbon spoiler on the boot, and if i raise the boot with the engine running and radio on, it hits the spoiler. hence breaking it today. lol!!
any help will be greatly appreciated
cheers

That look smart!!
I want to rip mine off completely as its huge. Can you get an internal one that will have good signal? How easy is it to do?
Yeah the S2000 covers the old hole BUT you need to make it a little bigger with a file for a perfect fit.
Took me 10 mins to get it fitted and another 10 mins to connect it all up in the car.
I tried the internal units but they were shite Mat.
nice one vidal. i shall look into getting one of those as it looks pretty good. just out of interest. where did you get it from?
Where did you get it all from and did you need the lead aswell or is it not specific ?
Vidal did you need the whole aerial unit or just the aerial itself?
i.e. this...

or this...

I got the bottom part from a breaker and ordered the top part (antenna) from ebay as it was missing on the breaker.
okey dokey. cheers
Is it possible to disable the aerial, whilst having the cd player on? dont really need an aerial, if all that you listen to like me, is usb music or cds!.
I did, I put my aerial on a switch, found which wire it was at the back of the radio harness bit that powers the aerial motor (think it's a blue wire) and just put a switch in between. I used the front fog light switch cos I don't have front fogs anymore. Just flick the switch when I want to use the radio and up goes the aerial.
Is the honda S2000 aerial powered/amplified? In other words, does it give decent reception?
Depends on your head unit.
The standard Sony one will only put the aerial up when you're listening to CDs if you have traffic announcements turned on.
Yes it has an integral amplifier
Does it need +12v for the amplifier?
Yes BUT this is already there from the stock setup
Definitely doing this!
Perfect, just need to source one for reasonable money now.
