DAB Aerial

[Peaks]

Has anyone fitted a DAB radio to their Triumph, and if so where did you mount the aerial? 

Ideally I'm after somewhere that will be unobtrusive/unseen but will still give good reception.

The car in question is  Vitesse convertible, but interested in the position on any Triumph.

I have a DAB in my Vitesse CV,i use the old analogue telescopic aerial with a DAB converter,mine is mounted in front of the windscreen on the drivers side.

Works fine 90% of the time except for some areas where the DAB signal is rubbish.

Should say the  radio came with a sticky aerial like a heated windscreen element,that was useless.

after many expensive failures i went for this cheapie it runs on DAB with the std stick telescopic aerial no adaptors and works as well as the signal

doesnt have a CD player but i can live with that and Gold raio or whats on my usb stick (donr ask about the phone  ) as thats not got any music on 

i use it to make calls !!!  but this has all the inputs and blue tooth you will need  for peanuts

I have this one with an original housing and speaker for that almost standard look.

Steve, looks good where did you get it? Does it require any extra bits?

No extra bits,mine is the 100 series,has USB but no Bluetooth,i don`t need it.Just an aerial converter for my old stick aerial.(from them as well.)

About £220 all in.
