When we got the bongo with mushroom roof,of course the arial is missing also radio ,fitted connectors from Halfords which is ok ,the arial connection is at radio end,where the hell is the other end
I know they are normally on roof but with mushroom it's not there..the question? where to fit one
Any ideas. rondor30

I have a Blaupunkt DAB radio and the aerial is fitted to the windscreen .The wire runs discreetly up the window side rubber and the little black box is (double sided) taped behind the mirror .Works a treat for me :D

The aerial isn't on the roof its mounted on the metal just above the drivers door. The aerial cable runs up the o/s window screen column and back to just beyond the drivers head.
See the Lush projects diagram

Fraid I can only describe the blaupunkt DAB one .It is a black sheathed single outer cable ( might be more than one wire inside )which simply plugs into the rear of the radio I tucked it up the side of the windscreen under the rubber and then under the headlining at the top

Fuse 1 supplies the permanent +12 volt supply and Fuse 8 is the switched +12 volt supply.
