I've found the CTR ariel's successor

[Jamesstone]

Just got mine on the weekend, looks very smart only prob is its hitting the cup spoiler, would this be because my 172ff has a diffrent base mount to the cup?

I don’t think I have ever looked at what aerial a car has.

 

[djchewy]

you can get them here in 2 different lengths

http://mazda3forums.com/enigma/index.html

Price is $16.99 USD + $4.5 USD postage, which is about £11 is it not?

 

[clio_luke]

good find

 

[Jamesstone]

dammm! didnt even know, just gonna have to keep being carefull when opening the boot then:dapprove:, does look well smart though, does'nt look cheap or tacky

 

[StevenMc29]

will this aerial hit the cup spoiler on non sports?

 

[Jamesstone]

If your car didnt come with a cup spoiler as standard it will, like mine :dapprove:

Why piss about with airmail when you can take a five minute drive to your local Mazda dealer and get one for roughly the same price. At least it's certain you will receive it!


Jamesstone: That's a bit of a bummer to be honest. I knew the FF and the Cup had different baseplates but I didn't know it would cause the ariel to come into contact with your spoiler.

 

[Jamesstone]

Not too worry, looks ace & since its flexible its not too bad, just gotta be carefull not to take the paint off the cup spoiler :dapprove:

Ace find though mate, first aireal that fits tidy to the base mount & performs!

can you get the 2.5" ones from mazda?

 

[amitshah1990]

that is a hairy arm lol!! Good find with the aerial, ill be looking into one very soon!!

 

[pecan]

I don't think 2.5" would look any good mate, the MPS ariel is the perfect size in my opinion. You can go too small. See if you can find a 1cm ariel!

[Jamesstone]

206 one looks no shorter, and the ebay ones are gash.

 

[Marky_]

Standard one is about 3ft long. That looks about 1/3 of the size.

Halfords one looks the best.

 

[Tigger]

I went to Mazda with the part number - they came up with something that looked completely different and it was £19 :S

 

[Tigger]

Just bought one of these from a member on here, the rubber itself comes down over the threaded part so you cant get it to screw on.

Did anyone else have to cut the rubber at the bottom? :S

 

[Tigger]

^ Anyone?

 

[Kris86]

i got one done at birchdown..made for the job i tell thee

 

[Tigger]

Strange :S
