Other members have fitted other ones and had good results. Have a search about for ideas.

One of these then http://www.celsusice.co.uk/shopsect_dab.php

I do like the shark fin one, could replace the one on the roof I already have.

That's the one! Shark fin would look better but mines in the roof lining😊. No holes and great reception.

can i just clarify Coups?
you have literally just placed it sitting on the headlining? does it not need to make an earth contact?

It is sitting in the headlining but it does require wiring up. The 12v is pinched from the radio aerial on the rear near side D pillar and the earth up near the front with the Earth from the stereo.

Very good taste in car stereo. Kenwood double din all the way. Makesure to activate your LOUD button. In built amplifier etc etc etc pure sound too.
I know what to buy next. Very jealous.

What a difference. Crystal clear sound and I can plug in the iphone and play 853 different tracks from it.
I have been dragged into the 21st century.

Add that to the VVC alloy inlet manifold fitted the same day and the car runs well too.

have you any pics of it fitted mate?
