can anyone tell me what the bottons are on the left hand side of the steering wheel by the rear demister botton on a vl berlina.
on mine they are for the electric aerial up and down lol
my1st is that standard or something youve done? im not sure exactly what BUTTONS lowvl is asking about. i think i opnly have one on that side and thats the rear demist.
on the subject of electric airials. looked at supercheep today. for one they are like 25 bucks. can this be wired up so it goes up when the cars on. no idea how it works yet so yeh
Half a carton and still going!!! Now thats Economy
i got a series 1 berlina and to the left of the demist button on the corner of theat part of the dash is 2 funky shapped buttons that put the aerial up and down i think electrical aerial was an option when the car was first bought so when i turn the car on it goes up when i turn it off it goes down but with the buttons u can set the height of the aerial ureself
cheers

A decent radio will have a plain blue wire and a blue and white one on the back (aftermarket radio) one is to turn the amp on and the other ios for power aerial.Originally Posted by VLACS
If you want more inches, STROKE IT!
these are the buttons i think he is talkin bout sorry bout the crappy pics
i have an electric arial, goes on when car goes on, then goes down when it feels like it, possesed!:S:S . but i have no buttons !
thats pretty cool. mine is automatic so goes up when the radio comes on and off when the radio is off. Only problem is that UP is VERY UP like at first i thought it looked pretty gay (ruined my streamlined look lol) a button like that would be nice.Originally Posted by my1stVL
yea thanks guys im sure its 4 my aerial, but it now goes up by itself now. since i put my new stereo in. thanks.
yea i think it for my aerial thanks.
I have an aftermarket electric aerial i want to install, as my orginial one got snapped off by some punk.
Has anyone done this recently? What are the steps to doing it? Do i have to take the front quarter off?
Also, it has an up/down button in the kit which i want to put in the hole to the bottom left of the dash (where the electric mirrors button is on berlinas)
Any help would be good, thanks.
lol no need to take the gaurd off.
take off wheel.
remover plastic inner gaurd. (plastic push clips - push in and screw out).
instant access to aerial, youll figure it out from there.
its that easy.
