Aftermarket arial base doesn't fit amp - help

[Quijibo Jones]

Hi guys, appreciate this might not be much use without pics so i'll add some later.

i'm having issues connecting an aftermarket arial to what i believe is the amp

However, i bought this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-REPL ... %7Ciid%3A1

and on removing the old one i discover the screw that holds the amp in place goes right up to the arial base (and holds it on) to form the connection. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the new base connected to the amp as the fitting is different. I now have a nice looking base with a stubby arial not connected to anything and an amp thats floating about

Has anyone experience this and can share their solution?

Appears you have bought a non genuine aerial, which is why I'm guessing you are having issues. The angle looks more raked then OEM as well.

"THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT(OEM) AERIAL, It is a replacement for the genuine."

Thanks. Where did you purchase this from.

Local main dealer. Those prices are without VAT.

I didn’t need to change the grommet as the original was ok.
