I've managed to snap the second external aerial on my 2002 hard top Jimny!
I'm wondering if anyone has found a successful alternative, either a non suzuki replacement that isn't metal, or an internal solution, stuck to the windscreen?
I read someone had come up with a solution that used the wire demister in the rear glass door! Has anyone tried that?
Would be good to avoid an external aerial as it will only get broken again, as I'm in and out of the woods.
All suggestions gratefully received. Just looking for fm reception don't need DAB .
Thanks John

There was a recent post about using a splitter for the CB aerial for FM radio. Cant remember who though
Old Ford Sierra's used to have the rear demist aerial thing. It was a box in the boot somewhere, Must be something like that available on ebay or similar?
EDIT:
Forgot to say, I have a DAB radio aerial sticker thing on the windscreen. works ok, but not as well as the roof one on the work van. doesnt do FM however.

I'm using one of these in my Jimny through cb aerial.
If you don't have a cb, something like this from Halfords?

Sadly I can't see the items you refer to. Thanks for your reply, is there another way you can point me at the links?
