I have a Rip Speed Bee Sting (Halfords) on my Cooper s the reception is quite good, but the original Aerial always gives the best reception I think.

Can anyone confirm if this is correct, that Honda S2000 arials fit a MINI. Half the size of the MINI arial, and still the same reception.

I have no idea Andy, I'm hoping my cheapo ebay win from my old Cooper will be fine on my new car for reception, otherwise I'll have to source a new one.

ebay is a good route ... halfords also stock a stubby arial that actually looks good !

It says on the Lohen page that the 1st Gen won't fit the 2nd Gen, does that mean my old one won't fit? I can't try it out as Jay is meant to be spraying it black, which will be a waste of time if it won't screw in?

I have tried my old aerial and it fits!
So I've handed it back to be sprayed black
