Anyone got one of these . . .

. . . going spare?

Part of the base of my aerial seems to have perished and fallen off. Looks like I'll have to unscrew the aerial and replace the whole thing - anyone got one?

IIRC Paul, you can still buy new ones from a main dealer.

Of course I should have linked it and hurled insults at you. Sorry, I'm not at my best.

There's no such thing as the invisible man Mark - it was just a film - yer know . . . pretend, :shock:

So, I just ring up a main dealer and say I want an aerial base for a BX? And a main dealer will know what a 'BX' is exactly?

You might want to try a Citroen main dealer - although I seem to recall someone (Des, was that you?) once running into someone younger than the BX who was convinced that Citroen had never made such a thing.

IIRC it's the same aerial and base as a ZX, Xsara and C15 van. Also Pug 205, 309, 405. In fact most of the PSA stuff of that era.

You're spot on mark. You need to remove the sunroof motor surround then its a 8mm socket.
