[doc] DAB radio in the D, using original aerial

["Phill Wright" <psw@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Just finished installing the new audio in 6772.
I've fitted a DAB headunit (Blaupunkt DAB52), and wanted to use the 
original car radio aerial for both FM and DAB so I didn't have to fit 
a 2nd aerial - there's nowhere suitable for an internal only glass 
aerial really either (plus they are 50 quid).
In case anyone hasn't done this before - I found a company doing an 
FM/DAB diplexer unit (bi-directional FM/DAB splitter) which works 
great - basically you need to make up 3 leads as well as the 
connections on it are coax, and connected up it works a treat! 

- BTW - yes you can get the old Craig radio out through the centre 
console air-vent without removing the whole console, fiddly, but do-
able.

Swapped the front speakers for a pair of Boston FX3's came highly 
recommended from local ICE specialist store in Nott'm, and they sound 
superb.

Cheers
