Tourer Aerial amp connections
i am hoping to upgrade the rather poor window aerials in my tourer for a roof mounted version. Does anyone know what the type of connection the socket to the radio lead is called (its the long black socket) and likewise, the stubby little connection to the window aerial is called (I will be connecting the new aerial to this). Many thanks. ps its the little square blue amp.

The chances of getting new aerial plugs are pretty small.
You could cut the plug off the aerial connection to the amp and fit a female to wire that goes to the radio and connect the new roof aerial wire to this connector. As the aerial amp connector to the side window is very small and a male part to plug would be near impossible to find I found that buying a aftermarket aerial amp is the answer. This could be mounted at the radio end of the cable Pull the roof lining down a little and mount the aerial as shown. It takes a bit of courage to drill a hole in he roof but just mark the position very carefully. Dave T |

many thanks, that's a much better idea, fitting new connectors rather than trying to find existing old versions. Missing ClassicFM already so will give that a try this weekend!
