I have bad radio reception and heard of that it should be caused of a bad amplifier. I took away the plastic piece in the back of the ceiling so I could reach the antenna. There was no amplifier. Is there no amp on my 95 model or is it situated in a place not near the antenna?
Can't find antenna amplifier

Hi, hi Anders!
The amplifier is situated in the foot of the antenna. Maybe the wire (small black one) is brocken - it's the power-supply for the antenna-amplifier.

Hi Anders,
have you recived my second Mail yesterday?
Look out for this small black cable. If it isn't there your antenna-amplifier don't exist.
Greetings

I look under the antenna foot. I only see the radio signal cable (Coax). Is the amplifier in the part of the antenna which is outside of the car when it's mounted?

Hi Anders,
if there is only the Coax cable so your anennta don't have an amplifier. Normally the amplifier is in the feet of the antenna (outside of the car).

I guess my problem is in the antenna. Do I have to buy VW original or are there alternatives?
-
Yes this is true! I wouldn't buy a new original VW antenna. Visit your local car-hifi-dealer, he knows which products are good for you.
A very good manufacturer here in Germany is "Hirschmann" http://www.hirschmann.de/

What you else can do is, to buy a combined antenna for radio and mobile phone if you like to!
