Re: [DMCForum] Antenna replacment in my car

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've just taken one out that was held by one bolt (m6 in a 10mm hole), 
two pop rivets, one of which had not taken, so they installed a second, 
and a block of wood which wedged out the bottom edge to hold the aerial 
at the correct angle.
