Alternative ariel.

[hobeet]

Advice wanted, please. I have a motorised radio ariel taken from a 1996 Civic, numbered HAL 2147 39150-SN7-E000-XA. Is it possible to fit this ariel to my 1991 Beat i.e is there sufficient internal space where the original ariel is fitted on n/s rear wing?

There was a website (Japanese I think) that showed how to fit a Honda Elecrtic aerial (Integra type I recall) using the original Beat aerial body mount.

There is room behind the body panel to accomodate electric aerial, wether the Civic one you have is suitable I can not say.

Either some searching on here or via Google may give you some more info

A beat would have originally come with a blanking plug, aerial and radio are accesories and not standard fit. So there will be a part number for the blanking plug.

Part number for the aerial blanking grommet is 39161-SS1-000
