pic request - CTR aerial on rs clio

[Guy]

whats teh crack with these?? im guesing they're shorter so dont make the 182 look like a radio controlled car? as the standard aerials do

 

[Gareth]

yep shorter, they do rub against the cup spoiler though, but would think it probably does against the std ariel too? not sure.

 

[Guy]

how much are they mate and where from?? Honda dealer?

i wanna get a cup spoiler eventually when i find one for sale at a decent price.

 

[Ali]

18£ - Yep any honda dealer

 

[Guy]

18 quid??

could just give some little scrote a fiver to rob one. lol
lets face it.. CTR's are all over the place!

is it off the newer shape one or doesnt it matter? just ask them for an aerial from a civic type-r?

 

[Gareth]

its not type-r specific, it is just an ariel off the current civic.

 

[Guy]

okay cheers

do people just say its a CTR aerial cos it makes it faster?? :clown:

 

[Ali]

LOL, Go to the garage ask for aerial, pay with credit card, walk to door with Honda aerial, Get into renault clio and drive off! lol...need any more help? Failin that yeh just steal one.

Nice

 

[Lagerlout]

I have one on mine - they're not a brilliant fit tbh... but do look much better from a distance....

 

[Guy]

the way everyone on here seemed to have one i thought they would be a perfect fit..

 

[Alan]

Does it jus screw right in to the bit on the roof of the clio without any other parts?

 

[Gareth]

no they are not a perfect fit, but they look 100% better than the original

 

[Gareth]

yes it just screws into place

 

[Lagerlout]

Just doesn't match the base part of the aerial.

I'm pretty sure there are better aftermarke ones available for similar money. I paid a tenner from ebay. Was decidedly second hand looking to - Think it was hot lol.

 

[Gareth]

i bought mine new from a Honda dealer, they are pricey for what they are, but then that's the same with all dealer parts.

 

[Guy]

dont suppose anyone knows the thread size??

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-S2000-C...596875869QQcategoryZ10386QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

it states that it only fits 5mm screw in thread type hondas?

 

[Lagerlout]

5mm iirc.

 

[Gareth]

^^ that's the one dude, bargain that.

 

[Guy]

think i may just get that off ebay then..

 

[Guy]

how tight am i... just put that paypal coupon code in from general chat and saved a whopping 30p.. LOL!

:clown:
oh well, it paid for the 25p paypal charged me earlier to withdraw 25 quid.

 

[Alan]

I bought one also....not bad for a 5er eh.

 

[Guy]

considering i was gonna nip to honda on my dinner break.. glad i checked the trusty old ebay!

just need a cup spoiler to come up for a fiver too now. :clown:

 

[Ali]

I bought one...lol.
