G'day guys,
Has anyone swapped their antenna for a shorter one? Since putting roof racks on mine, at highway speeds the antenna either hits the roof of the truck or the rack constantly and it quite annoying.
I have not ever looked closely at anyone else's antenna, but I suspect that this may be an aftermarket or replacement antenna as it is not screwed in all the way into the base, however it does not budge! I tried to undo it with some pliers and just stripped the paint off it. I need to get some multi grips onto it to undo the thing!
On another note, as mine is the series 7 with the sat nav, does the antenna need to be compatible with this to make it work?
Cheers.
