Roof aerial rubber - how do you change it?

Hey guys when you get fixed up with the part forget all the droppping headling thing, this can be done without doing that. Keep the headling intact. Drop the grommet in some hot water to make it soft and spray it with silicone and i slips over the aeriel nicely. Only when you need to change the Aeriel base itself do you need to drop the headling, done heaps.

Golf Loon had a number for these not so long back. I reckon it was a 4B0 number off a Passat or something.

Same thing as a golf/bora...?

Thanks Jmac, sounded like a bit of a task doing the headling
