Has anyone ever fitted a replacement FM aerial in a Tuscan and if so where did you locate it (assuming it was hidden inside the fibreglass shell somewhere).
Also does a car radio aerial need to be earthed? If so this could be a slight issue when trying locate out of sight within a fibreglass body.
Thanks
Richard

Thanks for the replies chaps.
Aerial located and removed, a superb quality unit it was too - an old chrome telescopic number wrapped in foam and glue!! The pleasing thing is there is continuity between the cable in the wing recess and the din plug at the radio - hopefully a replacement aerial should improve reception from zero to something slightly better

Please let us know how you get on and what Aerial you go for, i have an Ipod unit on mine but i really miss the radio at times, but the same as you, reception is crap currently. I'd be surprised if its even connected!!!! Aerial located and removed, a superb quality unit it was too - an old chrome telescopic number wrapped in foam and glue!!

Have you gone and purchased yourself a Tuscan while I have been away???
Think mine is going for a 4.3 str8six engine rebuild when I get home. Will need it if you have an "S"

Yes took the plunge after much deliberation Greig - a very different animal to the Chim, but breathtakingly quick in comparison Have you gone and purchased yourself a Tuscan while I have been away???

. Can you drop me a note of you mobile & email - either via your dad or I think it may be possible to do it privately on PH (though no idea how) that way can keep you in the loop r.e any runs etc.
Cheers

You can send a private message but I think you have it disabled as it should be on your info page as PM. Will send you a private message on facebook and will tell my Dad as well to pass on my mobile number.
