Antenna

Perfect fit.Works exactly as described. I own several Volkswagens and will be purchasing several of the same antenna adapters in the near future.

Radio reception problem solver

Perfect, just what I needed. I had no radio reception at all after replacing my factory head unit in my Volkswagen MKIII Cabrio. Then I came across this factory amplified antenna to aftermarket head unit adapter. Low price and does exactly what it is advertised to do. I'm very happy with this item.
