Karlp Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Today I've tried removing my snapped aerial that is stuck in via pliers, pipe grips, bolt extractors and it just won't budge. So I've seen the window aerials that stick onto the front windscreen, or do I goto Nissan and ask them to sort it, or try buying the new silver metal holder that the aerial screws into, This is whats it like at the mo Or could I just screw a covering cap on?? And get the window aerial? What to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 find a bolt that looks like it would just to say screw into the hole with little effort. Super-glue it into place. Let it set, then unscrew the bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karlp Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Sorry lexx do you mean to cover it up, I wouldnt mind a little black cap to cover it up then get a £10 window aerial off eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I mean to get whats left of the old aerial out. Though it may damage the original thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karlp Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 I've had enough of the damn thing, the silver holder is actually turning as I'm trying to twist the black aerial out. I had a pair of pipe grips on the aerial then my mate had some on the silver aerial holder turning the other way it just wouldn't budge.

Karlp Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Okay this is mine now And what it should look like I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong? Is easy to get the new silver part of the aerial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lum Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I'm having my aerial removed from the wing & smoothed over this week so may well have one going spare.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Looks like some idiot has either put thread lock on it,or totally crossed threaded it and done it up really tight. Id imagine your best bet would be to take the whole unit out from the inside,and put a new one in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
