go for the bee sting antenna mate, it looks loads better and leave the shark fins for the BMW

talking about antennas, do these types reduce reception?

I think the shark fins are rather neat. Seeing as 90% of all new audis are fitted with almost an identical one to that!

Straight fit?

it says it fits the mk 4 polo and this is only the facelift version so i shouldnt see why it shouldnt be a straight fit

Should be a direct fit. I got one a few weeks ago as I thought mine was faulty but turns out the amplifier on it isnt working properly!

I think they look cool

I got a stubby aerial last year but I think I might have to upgrade

Yup I might just go for it and colour code
