Forgot to flick the half lower switch and SNAP! great.

Thanks garage door.

Now i have some long bit of plastic cord with teeth hanging out of my aerial hole, dangeling down the side of my r33. :P

did a search on this and the results wernt very helpful.

How much am i looking at for a new aerial installed and were on earth am i gonna find one, this must have happened to someone else. I live in Sydney around the Northen Beaches so if any 1 knows a place around there that can sort this out. Would be GREAT!

may sound like a small problem but it hell frustrating! thanks guys :P

this the aerial for the radio?

If so... mine was farked when I got mine...

If the telescopic bit is still fairly straight u can fix it urself...

takes about 1/2 hour... go into the trunk, on the left side... unbolt the motor that works

the aerial in and out... and have teh aerial itself...disconnect the power, piping etc.

take it all apart and start to piece it all back together... its fairly straight forward and

common sense to see which goes where... the hardest part is winding all the "plastic bit

with teeth" back in - as that tends to to spring back out.. just need to hold stuff down

firmly and work backwards... once ur done, screw everything backtogether and reinstall

it... another idea is to regrease it while ur in there...

hope this helps.

P.S - If its completely busted... try someone who has written off their skyline.

Half lower switch? u got that on your R33? where's the button? I have one button in my dash but i think it's for the parking pole at corner of front bumper which dun work, not for the electric antenna...

Hey dude

I did exactly the same thing about 6mths ago - Get yourself an aerpro replacement mast from autobarn/repco/something like that i think i paid $22!

I'll see if I can get the exact model for ya - U can always just turn your radio on and let it wind out and pull it all out so it doesnt hang out!

MODEL: AP12

parking pole?

Yes, parking pole or parking antenna. Dunno what they call.

It's the pole thing on the passenger side of front bar corner, useful for those car owners in japan who can't judge distance when doing paralel parking.
