RS8055 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Where's the stubby aerial? That's gotta be changed!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS8055 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Also, how did you change the sidelights? I bought some LEDs for mine previously, but they crapped out pretty quickly and I want to get some good new ones. Would like to know the easiest way to get them on too if anyone has advice on that?

mrkieran23 Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 I got to mine through the wheel arch line, jack it up to give space and pull back the ache liner. The aerial is on its way, although i was told they are screw? my one pulls off and then has a metal 10m thread in the body. is that normal?

RS8055 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 That's strange, mine just screwed off when I changed it... does the metal thread screw off at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payco Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Should screw off just above the cone base and screw back on. Simples. Quickest mod you will ever do and probably the cheapest.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS8055 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Without a doubt, but I'd advise getting the RDX stubby from Tarmac because I got one off ebay and it was utterly useless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
