[s-cars] What's the go to Avant antenna replacement?

[bill mahoney]

Thanks for the heads up Peter.
I do recall there being some goofy issue.  But I guess I'll find out.
Maybe I have to get a new base too... Hope not, but we'll see.
Cell phone?  Oh yeah I remember that audi classic.  Look down turn around
and dial the phone.  Oh and keep your eyes on the road too.
That said, I was able to hook in to the speaker and radio mute feature with
a bluetooth Sony HCB 30 for the new cell phone.
