Bongo Fury

broke my bongo aerial on my lilac tree reversing down the drive.It looked so sad and limp! thought about direct replacement but thanks to westonwarrior and aerial replacement factsheet I now have a little beesting fitted.

This works just as well as the original giving good reception even DAB

my question is why?

Is size realy not important ?

That's a good question Petebee...Why is that?

I'm assuming you used a richbrook item to replace your old broken aerial?

I know they are made from alluminium,perhaps that material is a better conductor of the radio waves?

As you probably noticed,extending the original aerial on the bongo actually worked,you just had to bear it in mind to re-tract it again as soon as possible.

I've not tried a richbrook aerial on my bongo yet,but i did try one out on my focus,but the reception was actually worse with that car...so i wasn't that bothered when it got pinched

I paid £2 for a replacement from the scrappy...You can tell it wasn't for a bongo at that price eh?

bigdaddycain mine sourced on Ebay from emjstores supplier CT racing total cost £6.49 just checked its non magnetic so guess its aluminium

Hmm, thats a good price pete, thanks for the link... i may get one as a spare in case i end up breaking my original...

After seeing the lengths some kids go to, to pinch things off cars (dustcaps etc.) ill only fit one if i really have to...
