VW Polo GTI Shark fin antenna & Vinyl wrap roof advice

[Swattysin]

I installed one and the connectors don't match up for the AM/FM antenna. Even if you pop off the plastic connector the AM band doesn't work, FM is just fine.
So I have a gsm connection and satellite connection but no radio antenna. Unless someone can help out?

Hey Pazza,

Did you get this resolved in the end and did you get any vcds errors post antenna swap even with the AM not connected?

I just got my roof sprayed piano black and wanted to grab the oem piano black shark fin above but was just concerned about error codes and loss of GSM. I will sacrifice AM if for the antenna change as long as everything else works. Cheers bud.

No VCDS errors.

I don't any connection for AM radio anymore so no ABC radio for the cricket.

Upside is that I have a gps connection available if I want to upgrade the head unit further.

I was going to take a look at what the sharkfins on the Golf GTI's are like, but not having AM radio hasn't annoyed me yet and it's been a year now.
