Which RetroSound aerial should I choose?

If you are fitting a DAB-equipped aftermarket radio and want to keep your existing aerial, the DAB1 splitter adapter adds DAB+ reception without replacing anything. For a hidden installation, the HPA1 and WPA2 are both amplified hide-away aerials; the WPA2 has a longer 105-inch lead and connects via the radio's power antenna wire, while the HPA1 uses built-in magnetic field circuitry and mounts behind the dash or inside a glove box.

For a traditional extending mast, the PA03 and PA03B are compact 18-inch mini units in chrome or black. The PA02 offers a taller 31-inch mast with six custom mounting heads and a five-foot cable, and the PA04 adds a remote-mount motor with six mounting heads included. The 12FT-EXTCBL suits any installation where the aerial lead needs extending.
