Shark fin options - Cameron UK - 30:th-Jul-2014

So I'm wanting a shark fin aeriel, not bothered about being gm, I just don't want to loose signal quality, is this possible??.

no as the shark fin has nothing to do with the radio only satnav
i am yet to see an aftermarket one that works for FM

Couldn't I remove the fm mast? Coil it around the boot and just fit a shark fin?

Cam if you want one that won't lose much in the way of signal you are looking at £70-100+.


Calearo seem to have the best rep.


You also have to be careful as the curve on the roof will cause some problems for a large on you want to try and keep within the Factory fitted size.

Here are a couple I'm looking at.

Might come in handy for those with an FM rear window mount.
