yep a lounge chair and a roof :)

mobile tv is just that- mobile tv. it has WAY too many varaiables in it to maintain clear reception.

google TV ghosting , reflections and multipath reflections. for a more technical answer.

digital tuners fix it somewhat but not whilst moving.

I haev customers with $6m boats trying to do the same thing and I will not do the digital tuner on them due to cost and reception issues.

the antenna you are talking about is excess of $150. now if you are trying to get house quality TV in your car YOU ARE WASTING YOUR $$!!

ive got everything from sticker antennas and they didnt work..i brought antenna boosters, you cant get it clear enough ever..

sorry to hijack but on my tv im only getting sbs and no other channels....any reason???

We have have been getting the tv in the r34 MFD gtrs going and will be testing a new tpye of antenna in the next week, said to be better, will keep you posted!

yeh keep us posted ey! :)

tested it that new anttena, worked ok ... not as good as the others, I have one more coming from germany that I will be trying too, should be here next week., will keep you posted

thanks bro cant wait to hear about it.

anyone know about the factory sat nav antennas?

i ripped out the r34 factoy setup, and now have a clarion tv screen....it has input for diversity antennas but i can see the plugs are different...oly cos i cant see a mini normal stereo antenna plug anywhere...

if i trace which plug actually goes to the antennas in the pillars...how can i get hold of the plugs so i can make it work with the clarion tv??

if you have the diversity 2 pin plug then you need this:

as for the TV antenna - no they are a separate item. if you had the OEM TV setup in it then it will be in the roof with a diversity amplifer.

yo chris... the radio antenna part is sorted.. got a converter to go into the clarion TVX6551 and then the unit has an output to go into a normal deck antenna.. so that part rocks

the tv antennas is exactly what i am on about... i am glad you know about these...does not seem to be much info on SAU at all.

my question was phrased like crap

So...i should from what i know have tv antennas in the car somewhere cos i was picking up channel 7 (sound only) scrambled picture with the original system.

Now i want to utilise those antennas for this aftermarket clarion system.

Do you know where in the roof so I can trace them... should i pull down the a pillars?

when i find them... can i buy some pin style connectors to wire to the ends of the existing antenna plugs and then plug it into the clarion unit.

or should the pin style MINI antenna plugs already be hiding in the car somewhere...

thanks for answering so quickly chris

probably going to need to pull the roof. some were on the sides some were just above the antennas (where are yours?). once you find them you will see a 4 core flat cord that feeds them - follow that back and put teh appropriate connector on it. thet are alos powered so note that wire as well are power in up.

    • @Kinkstaah yeah I initially checked with Chequered as I've used them with a previous car. But they have stopped sourcing and installing Nistune chips. They only do tuning now. I did not want to pull out my ECU and send it away somewhere to have the chip installed. That would mean no driving the Skyline  
    • Should have checked that.  On the plus side, I got my Bluetooth adaptor.
    • Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha. We also have professional engineers who were only school smart but have no idea how a drill works. They generally go straight into management roles out of school which is also for the best. 
    • Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things
    • I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
