Hi, firstly sorry for the double post (i originally posted this in the ICE section), but it was suggested i posted here instead which i guess makes more sense since err, well you guys have pandas Anyways, original post...

Hi all, i stumbled across this forum while googling around and this place looks great for fiat owners such as myself, so im glad to become a member of this site

Anyways, I have a new shape fiat panda (2005/06 model) which is the 1.1 active and im getting a DAB radio head unit for it. I need to fit a DAB aerial and for me nothing but the best will do, hence the need for an external mounting aerial to replace the current one.

Can anybody tell me the process of removing the original aerial, including the feeding of the cable and access the the routing of the cable as well as the process of fitting a new aerial and feeding this cable through the roof and body work?

Is it a difficult process?

Thanks in advance
(end original post)

...Just one other thing, is the cable on digital aerials different to standard aerial cables, or are they the same? If there the same then i could just replace the aerial on top of car and fit an adaptor, but if not then its gonna be the hard long drawn method of threading cables through tiny holes you cant get to :s

The antenna cable is different for DAB.

I have a Blaupunkt DAB in my car with a glassmount on the front screen. Simple to fit as no messing with headling to run the cable.

I can post a photo if you want to see.
