Somebody (won't mention names) was sufficiently astute to notice that my freshly painted, just out of the shop, blazing signal orange 914-6 had the antenna mounted on the "wrong side" (passenger side) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Sleepless nights...how could I let that one pass...and can I live with myself if I don't remedy this. Probably will bite the bullet, patch it up, and drill hole in nice, fresh paint...WTF But before I venture down that road....better see if I get things right this time around. Any advice re: a) most likely correct manufacturer(s) of antennas for 1970 model....I ask, cuz I'm betting on Hirshmann and Bosch...(blue tip???) If so, does anyone out there have nice ones... AND/OR A vendor has some nice looking NOS Poddigs...were they used... It may be a bit important at this stage, cuz I gather the Poddigs have a slightly smaller cutout/hole for mounting..... b)length of antenna....Hirshmann seems to be a tad over 90cm....Poddig has at least 2 lengths....100cm....and 150cmmmmmmmm Hmmmm Thanks for input Paul |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) My -6 also has a Blaupunkt AM-FM radio from the factory with a manual antenna on the driver's side fender.
