i have the S2K aerial on my car, it was installed before i bought it but there is no problem in radio reception due to the fact it is rubber.

To be honest when i first saw it on the car i thought it looked a bit funny because it sat at a funny angle but then i moved it round so it lined up with the lines of the car, looks great now, way better then the stock one. I would highly recommend it.

Also the fact that it is black doesnt look bad at all, I think it would probably look worse if you painted it. Just my 2c. :thumbsup:

Oh and yeah with out a doubt the S2K antenna is way better then the standard teg one.

Just something I found while browsing the net.

Hope it is useful.

Zen and Delta One: If you want the antenna to stop working completely, remove all the panels on the inside of the boot on the antenna side so that you can see the base of the antenna, then (remove it if you have to) disconnect what should be a two or three pin plug connecting to it. Removing the black plug will make no difference, as this is just the signal plug. Kinda like if you pulled the antenna plug from your TV but left it jacked into the wall ;)

South:
Unless you used lead-based (lol), the miniscule thickness of paint that you'd be using wouldn't make a difference.
Think about it, it's receiving signal through all that rubber, right? But I agree with Nabsie, if you've got black tyres, black trim etc, there's nothing to say it wouldn't tie in nicely as-is.

And if anyone has an s2000 antenna they need taken off their hands, pm me.

mine doesnt go up at all, but my reception is crystal clear (not that i listen to the radio cos im normally watching a dvd)

what model have u got....

there should the a blue wire (remote) and a blue and white wire (antenna - shoud have labels 2 !!)

this could be the other way round with wire colours i think... either way u got them connected round the wrong way i think.....

shoots about 1m into the air.

apparently that locustom antenna is a bitch to install. trying to find an oem s2000 setup.

How the heck do I get those little plastic circle things off in the boot?

They are holding the 'lining' of the boot in, how do I get them off? Just pull them off? Cause they are pretty darn hard too
