Fitting a Shark Fin Antenna on Opel Astra

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Antenna

Unscrew the original mounted antenna. The "shark fin" antenna you purchased will have a screw with two nuts: the lower nut is used to adjust the length of the screw to fit the support thread. Insert the screw and tighten it fully, then lower the nut onto the support and tighten it with a spanner. Position the "fin" to your liking and mark around it with a marker. Remove the lower film from the fin, which covers the adhesive part, and apply the appropriate glue before positioning the fin within the outline you drew with the marker.
