850/V70 Aerial amplifier wanted
 

I need to replace the aerial amplifier used for FM on the V70 (and I believe it would be the same for 850) - the one that lives under the trim on the passenger's side in the boot area.

Anyone got a spare good working one, or breaking a car and would be prepared to let me have it?

Many thanks! :teeth_smile:

Hi Luxobarge

Is the item you need at about 4:56 on this RobertDIY video?

I will be breaking one soon, so will have a look. That particular car had radio problems so I may need to put in a test head unit.

Hi Luxobarge.

I have looked the one that I have on a 1999 V70 (manufacture date on the amp indicates very late 1998).

It is working fine - someone had cut through the aerial cable in the left rear cargo well! Patched that together and the radio stopped seeking/crackling and finds channels loud and clear. Slight corrosion around the edges of the sockets that clip onto the window glass.

Part number is 9452009 which I think is not the same as the one (9130312) linked on ebay by cookeh.

Feed is by a single red wire.

Please PM if you are interested.
