Looking good. Aerocatch pins make a huge difference

I also put my stock wheels back on for the winter.

I like the aerial your using? How hard was it to fit? Striaght swap? Reception? Does it act only as a radio aerial or nav aswell?

Thanks for the link

But do you have to modify the roof to get it to fit?

Can you comment on the radio reception with the shark fin?

I've done some research and it seems everyone says the radio reception suffers drastically. Any opinions?

I have never used the radio in this car since I switched antenna. Honest. Not the navi either for that matter :D I only use my iPod.

The original antenna is probably the best, but it looks so 2001 lol.

Straight swap. They did not have xenon when I bought them.

I would not recomend switching lights. Stock still rock. This is my third pair of this kind... They tend to fog. But then again, they look better imo.
