Antenna Adapter on MKV5 GTI for after market audio

[Stuart]

I've just fitted this Vigo system into my MKV GTI. I'm really pleased with the unit in general but I do have a question.

The standard radio I removed from the Golf (I think its a RCD300) has two antenna (aerial) connections at the back. One white and one cream\beige. My new new unit only has the one connection.

I have plugged in just one, but the radio quality isn't great. In fact I get feedback from the engine rev's.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere (which I now cannot find....) that there is an adapter that can be purchased that takes the two standard antenna connections and provides one output.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks
S.

PS I'll provide a write up on this unit when I get it working correctly. It really is quite good for what I paid.

You need to get the twin fakra adaptor. This help on mine but the reception is not the best!
Plenty on ebay or radio installers have them.

I can see dual\twin fakra to DIN but nothing that is dual\twin fakra to a single fakra which is what I have.

Anyone seen such a thing?
