I replaced my iq head unit this week with an alpine system .. I have a VE2 omega .. I have broke fakra plug of the antenna cable (white one) I have plugged it into a green one that I found and radio works however getting a little bit of static .. does anyone know if I can replace the plug or will I need to buy a whole new cable or does the current cable have an inline connection somewhere in it .. cheers first time I have posted

One is for GPS and the other is for radio. I don’t recall which is which.

The antenna is part of the car’s harness. It’s not a separate cable like days of old.

Now all going well, you can buy another Fakra connector (get the correct colour) and remove the outer part. Then reinsert the crimped cable into the new connector. All fixed.

Disassembling the connector:
