Radio Amp Problem (Pics)
No Radio reception, so I removed A-Pillar cover to scheck the amp. Pictures show what I found.
I believe the 'Tab' in my hand should be attached to the screen..but where .? Is it broken (by the ham fisted windscreen installer perhaps) or is there a fix to this.. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

The antenna should be built-in to the windscreen. Did you get an OEM screen installed, or an aftermarket one?

Wayne, Screen was fitted before I got the car. The original was all over the floor on purchase and the replacement installed by the seller. There is an element running through the screen but sadly it looks as if the installer broke the tab off.
With no original to look at, I have no idea whether or not I need to get it changed again.. |

You may have answered your own question. From the looks of where it is routed doubt you could attempt a fix. Might be able to get a small loop type antenna and adapt it to the wires.
