The stubbbie ariel fits OK with the shark fin sat nav bit. No problems.

And it screws all the way down? Interesting. It must be slightly different to the ones that come on MY08 Golfs which required the thread to be trimmed a little bit to fully screw on.

You beat me to it Simon!

Here are three close up's of my new stubby aerial.

installation takes 5 seconds...
unscrew the original...
screw in the new one!

Driving around town I haven't noticed any radio reception issues...
although in an underground shopping centre in town it did cut out to static.
Can't remember though if the original did that anyway.

Can always put the original back on my Tig next time I go into the Canberra Centre.

Driving around though - is fine.

Just ordered one of these from Dub addiction myself. My wife picked up our new Tig today and tells me the Antenna hit the Garage Roof on the way in. Garage door doesn’t quite open all the way but that’s another story. Hope the new one arrives quickly.

Had exactly that problem Dave. Solved it with the stubbie. Works well.
