The aerial on my Williams has snapped off today. Seems to have snapped off at the pivot on the base.

I still have the long antennae bit but need a base for it to bolt to the roof and then screw into if that makes sense.

Anyone have one or know if they are still available from Renault?

which Williams do you have - Renault only sell the rectangular version now not the original round one if that's what you have fitted.

The round one can be found by going to your Peugeot dealer.

Surely it's against the law for a Williams owner to go to a Peugeot dealer?

What details do I need for this mate?

Renault can get me one as you say but I'd prefer a round one.

It's a 1 mate. Think that will be the round one

Do you have a part number Northy? Or a car that it's used on?

I would suggest a Peugeot 106 from the same era. Looking on Google they appear to have a round base aerial.

I've just called my local Peugeot dealer and asked for the base from an early 106 or 205 but he said they're just showing square bases on the system.

He he wasn't that interested though really because I didn't have a registration or VIN to give him.

I have bought the round ones but the rubber is poor quality and the sun does degrade it.

Are they the ones off eBay?

Is it the rubber seal that gets sun damaged?

My original has snapped at the pivot point so if I can reuse the seal off that which is in good condition I could get one of these.
