shail 0 Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 Just thought I'd share this incase anyone is having problems with radio reception. For the last 5 years or so I've always had poor FM reception and no MW reception. Turns out you need to amplify the signal from the beesting for certain headunits which don't have a built in signal amp. I've just fitted it and radio now works very well.http://www.nexxia.co.uk/Car_Stereo_fitting_kits/antenna_adaptors.htmYou'll need PC5-52, PC5-90 or PC591 depending on what aerial connection you have on the headunit / end of stock aerial lead.Moderator edit by: PeterVR6Moderator edit by: PeterVR6 Link to post Share on other sites
