DAB In a V8 roadster.... Or coupe

[AHORSEY]

Hi all, just had a dension unit fitted to get iphone integration into the head unit. I spoke with the fitter ref adding DAB module and was put off by the discussion over aerials. Looks like options are limited either using a splitter which doesn't offer great sound quality or fitting a glass mounted aerial pretty high on the windscreen due to the raked angle....... Anyone got this working and would like share some advice and pics if poss if you went the windscreen mount route. TA

For the moment I decided to not fit the DAB unit, but it's there until Thursday so I can always change my mind if someone can help put at rest.

Btw - I normally listen to the engine not the radio but Mrs AHORSEY likes Radio 5 Live ......

Ah yes saw that, but it was the aerial bit that I'm not too sure about. I figured the dension unit as the way to go to future proof it and add later if needed, but aerial options at the moment leave me a little cold....

I'm having it installed this thursday using the splitter, will let you know how it is. I suppose it also depends on where you live and the quality of your DAB reception. Perhaps check this online.

Good luck, let me know how it goes....really interested as DAB reception where I live is good ( well in the rangey it's great but it's got a good roof aerial. ) but the local installer was a little scathing about splitters.
