Title: Aerial rubber replace / Aerial removal
Post by: Trav Turbo on May 25, 2021, 10:51:43 am

Hello all! Has anyone replaced a Aerial base rubber on a 3 door GTi before & know where the aerial wire is located under the headlining & trims to undo the wire to remove the aerial?

Thanks in advance.

if you put the rubber aerial base in warm water for a while it become soft enough to slip over the aerial base without removing it.
