Thanks Mate - you just saved me over $1000 Australian dollars - thats what the dealer quoted me for parts and labour to replace the whole unit. Just had to wait for the part to be sent over from the USA as noone stocks it locally - Fit like a glove on my Hyundai Sonata 2018. During the wait for the part to arrive - I put a plastic sheet over the exposed circuits and held it down with gaffer/material tape. That held up really well for the weeks I was waiting - The gaffer tape solution withstood driving on the freeway in the rain and was still solid when I had to take it off. So a big thanks from Australia👍

If I were to do it again I wouldn't do that. Maybe tape them to prevent rattling, but not epoxy them.

Hey man, great video! I have to do exactly the same for my Kia Sportage 2017, but it seems I can’t find the proper cap anywhere… Could you help with that? And do you have any idea if the ones for your kia optima would fit on the sportage?

That I'm not sure. Good question though.

I'm looking for a multi mimo antenna for my Kia Rio so I can have cellular, wifi, GPS and radio (both standard and dab/dab+) reception.. any ideas??? Please comment links or companies that can supply them.. Thanks in advance. I have seen this Panorama GPSD-6-60-QW antenna but thought about buying this and combining it with my original radio antenna but I'm hoping there's a radio version. Thanks

Kia just quoted 800$ with labor to replace the top that disapeared somehow. I'm trying that.
