Aerial robbed..

[tommys]

Some scuzzy person robbed my stubby aerial which was worth a massive £5..

I know they are easy/cheap to replace but I don't want to have to keep buying aerials just because I shouldn't have to. Are there any good stubby anti-theft aerials that I can get? Or atleast something which is harder to take.

I've seen richbrook sabretooth ones but they look rubbish.

get one the same and put some thread lock on it

 

[tommys]

Is that like a adhesive or something?

Yup.

Sounds like a good idea. If I get a high strength one will it ever come off?.. like if I wanted to put the original back on when I come to selling?

Why bother ? It's £5 as you say. No one's going to turn a car down on the basis of an after market aerial, unless it looks like it can pick up broadcasts from Jupiter haha

Just get a Honda Type R/CRV aerial. They look good and look OEM. Then just glue that in, job done!

I think I saw some 'anti-theft' ones in Halfords :S

There's varying strengths of threadlocker. From "weak as piss" right through to "that c**t is never moving again".
