Hi guys.
I have asked this on here before but just need to ask again ( as it's something i am defo going to do ) has anyone fitted a dab/radio set up ? if so which aerial did you fit ? and was the conversion worth doing ?
Cheers,
Phil.

looked at it but decided to go for a non DAB so I could use the (not great) screen aerial. The bluetooth hands free and so on are really handy. Music streaming good on that too. DAB signal a bit patchy on my normal drives in any case. Not useful perhaps I will shut up!

Fitted DAB in my old MR-2. Used original aerial with this adaptor and it works like a dream: http://www.dabonwheels.co.uk/Kinetic..._splitter.html

I'll second that the car I just bought had one in the glove box. I think it has an extension from the original aerial. It's great no more fade out. Worth it in my opinion.

I fitted a Kenwood KDC - DAB41U the system includes a discrete window film aerial you stick onto the inside of windscreen.This works great you get fantastic reception and the system also works with your infrared on the ZT a simple plug and play.
