The Standard Puma aerial is 55 cm in length.
The alternative replacement's on ebay/Amazon are either 23cm or 40cm with wire wound around it under a plastic coating.
Has anyone tried these with a standard Ford CD 6000?
I am wondering if a 40cm after market aerial with the external additional wire wound around it gives it either a) an equivalent, b) better or c) worse reception than the Ford item?
Has any one tried either of them?
1) What were your findings with regards to both fit and reception ?
2)I also note the part where it screws onto the base is 16mm diameter v 12mm for the original, will the difference look odd?
Or
3) Would the advice be to stick with the standard Ford aerial?
