I have tried a search but none seem to answer my question.
If I got a bee sting aerial such as this one: LMF Bee Sting Aerial
To fit, do I simply unscrew my old one and screw these in, or do I have to peel back the roof lining and remove it that way?
Also I've heard people using Frontera ones - does this simply screw on and screw off too?

 I know my original Vauxhall one does (as you have to take them off when going through car washes, not that I ever do) but just wondered if these bee sting ones just screw on or not?!
Anyone else? Or anyone had experience with Frontera ones?

Cool, cheers. I think you've got the right idea Fonz, as I use the radio a lot and don't want to waste money on a short one.
Going to ring Vauxhall today to see how much a Frontera one is.

The one I've ordered from Vauxhall is for a Frontera A, so should give quite good reception!
