Hi all, wondering if you could help with a query about my aerial fitting. I have managed to lose my aerial and need a new one. I've tried several replacements that claim to fit, but none of them do. So, I bit the bullet and paid out for the proper Hyundai part (for i30 2012), as advised by the Hyundai garage. However, this doesn't fit either.

The aerial base has a screw thread coming out of it. Unfortunately so does the aerial, essentially two 'male' components.

Any suggestions which is the right part? If you unscrew the antenna is it a male/female fitting?

Thanks!

Hmm, welcome to the forum.

The existing aerial base... are you sure the screw thread from the previous aerial isn't still in the aerial base? It should be a female screw receptor.

Welcome. That would certainly explain it!

Ahh thank you! I had considered that, but its not easily moving. So long as I know the base is meant to be female I'll put a bit more welly into trying toget that screw thread out! Thanks

I changed the little bent antenna out for this, very happy, screws straight in, all of $6 bux!
