Electric antenna

goldie · 04-20-2008

Hi,
Has anyone fitted an electric antenna to an SLK? Something like that fitted to the Jaguar XKR? Is there room to fit one? It would seem to solve the problem of the existing ugly antenna. There must be a reason why it doesn't seem to be a common modification?

Not really that much room for it to be honest mate and the wiring would all need to be replaced since the inside section only has a really short coax run.

Thanks as usual Dan - I knew it was just too easy to be a solution or you guys would have already done it !!
