Stubby Again

[dragon]

I can't remember where I read the supplier for a stubby. I remember it was a US company. Anyone help please. Neaad to get one.

Just ordered mine from Mangowalk's US eBay shop. Very helpful and apparently sent to me within a day of ordering.

Cost: $15.98 shipped, so about a tenner(ish).

Isn't the radio reception a bit crap with a stubby fitted ? I've pondered getting one but won't if it can't pull in radio stations properly.

Ive fitted a stubby and there is a small drop in pick up of radio stations but only in certain areas.

That is what stops me from getting one :thumbsdown:

I dont quite have a stubby - but i have my old S2k aerial - and when i swapped it over i didnt notice any change of reception - but then i only listen to Radio 1, Five live and capital FM!

I have the Peugeot/Citroen one (Part Number 6561.N3)
£5.45 from main dealers if I remember correctly.
No problems with reception for me but I only listen to Radio 1!!

as it's only £5 is it not worth a try?

S2000 aerial here too, in 5 years of ownership I never noticed a drop in radio reception and it sounds great in my M now aswell. 8)

Kryton, I got one, a Peugeot one that one of the forum members kindly mailed to me. It fits great and the reception is fine when I use it. I listen to the iPod and the Sirius a great deal and haven't noticed any problems with FM as of yet. (FM is only good for about 50 miles or so, over here)

As my car is black, I don't really notice the longer aerial,perhaps if the car was a different colour it may be more pronounced. I'll stick with what I've got for now.Nice that PSA one does the job for only a fiver.
