Paul,
The aerial on my car (2004 Mk1) is located in the void between inner & outer front wings.
Access via the 'hatch' to the front lights.
You need to grovel around..but it's a bog standard telescopic radio aerail, typically found in Halfrauds for £10-£15.

I'd check the grounding to the chassis and spray the co-ax connections.

Paul,
Sorry - it's passenger side.
The aerial is not fixed in any way - just left to find a natural 'angle of repose'.
Once you've identified the co-ax, just unravel and you'll find the aerial at the end!
