About the RetroSound WPA2
From our tech experts at CEN
An amplified hide-away aerial, mounted out of sight rather than on the wing.
Who it suits
Owners who do not want a visible aerial on a restored car, and anyone whose original aerial hole has been filled.
Our tech experts advise
Reception in an older car depends on the aerial, its earth and the state of the bodywork far more than on the radio. If reception disappoints after a fitting, that is where we look first. get in touch. See car stereo installation.
