peel back the roof lining measure the car to get the middle mark about 5 or 6 inches in from the back put masking tape on the roof to mark on then drill and fit run the lead down the rear pillar along the sill and plug in an away you go

U cant fit an electric ariel to the nova front wing, the mechanism underneath is just too big. Also the the span across the top of the wing is just too narrow for the ariel to sit on. Or thats what i was told when i went to fit one on my car.

My one gets excellent reception. Its a Vectra Estate one with a signal amplifier in the base.

Once youve fitted the bee sting,is it worth welding up the old hole and getting a bodyshop or meself to spray it up, or just get a new wing and have that sprayed?

dont put on a proper working one!! they are shocking(crackles all the time and you got to drill through roof) just put on a fake one, cheaper easier etc....

get a vauxhall one, they are amplified and work perfect, i have a corsa one, but i think some of the other ones are supposed to look better as have more sloped angle.

I`ve got an amped corsa one an` all, it works fine. The golf style ones are more slopey and do look a little better (shame). Be carefull with the roof lining as it`s easy to tear, and its clipped up at the back of the roof; a right bastard to get off!!! ;)
