Scottish Elises

Finally realised radio reception is not good in my Exige.

Ive been too busy enjoying th drives - however great music adds to my driving pleasure on top of the sonorous exhaust.

Ou est le aerial??????

Doesnt appear top have one ive just realised!! If not waht are the opitons - would be waste of a sweet lil Blaupunkt with 4 speakers....

Cheers!

my elise is crap too I have tried aluminium tape on the boot lid, new aerial, better grounding, pulling the power on the stack dials and still nothing I think the only answer is get some good CD's

but if anyone has any other idea's

My S2 had great reception....did have an aerial on the engine cover though

It cant be that difficult really surely....

Seems like you have tried a few things though!

What's the reception like when the engine is switched off and the key is in the auxillary position (you might need to wait 30s or so after switching the engine off to tell?

Obviously you need to be outdoors where there is a chance of reception.

The reception in my S2 is awful, BTW.

Cheers,
Robin

I have been sitting next to Darvel Mast and still nothing

I assume it's the same as a 111R and the aeriel will be under the centre section of the front clam. Mine was taped to the underside of that bit. You could get your hands into it on a 111R, but not sure if you can on an Exige.

Is it the standard FM radio or the DAB one? I found the DAB very hit and miss.

DAB very poor.....FM slightly better on mine.....
Alpine with ipod connection is the best move....

Best to stick to CDs really as there is nothing on the radio anyway

My S1 has a pretty awful reception too, i'm thinking the best solution is an mp3 headunit, or iPod connectivity. i never use the radio anyways

Mine is OK, but I have an Ali back deck which probably helps!
