Shark Fin For R60?

Hey you guys it’s been a while since I have asked and posted anything on here.

My question if there is a shark antenna for R60 and where can I buy?

Is there a video on how to remove the original antenna?

The factory antenna unscrews from the base. You can probably find a shark fin that has the same thread on a wire that screws into the original mount and the fin will then cover the whole thing.

@y8s yeah that’s what I’ve been seeing, but they’re only for the R50s from what I have seen.

If anyone finds out if there is something for the R60 please let me know.

@mikey_t I’ve looked, but some of them look hella flimsy and chea. Some of the sellers look like they’re selling the Cravenspeed shark fin.

The Cravenspeed one looks like it’ll fit, but doesn’t say anything about the R60 /R61

Sorry, I realize now that you're looking for fit over the big fat hump on the R60. I'd totally get one myself if I knew it'd fit.

I think the R53 antenna was much smaller. The newer cars such as the R60's antenna also houses GPS, satellite, ect I think...so I dont know if it would be bad for it even if you could cover it.


Some generic one might work. This one looks huge: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Auto-White-...ss!43202!US!-1
