YIKES...
they were popular in the 50s lol
fj holdens had them probably a nasco accessory... lol
never seen one on a beetle
the beetle ones went on the side in front of the door...
main connector down low then another stabiliser connector up higher....
they can still be found..
but a bottom connector that bends at 90 degrees... ??

Don't like them. It looks like it puts a dent in the roof when you mount it.

Unforunately Your best bet would be thesamba.com,
None are cheap though, here a Hirshmann............

It's funny that someone can put up a specific wanted ad on here and then get replies from people with no idea about it telling them how they should get a later beetle one or that it looks crap and puts a dent in the roof??
If you don't know what he's after why make a post??
FYI all split bugs built prior to Oct 1952 had a dimple in the roof for the antenna to mount.

I havent got time can you do it for me?
Until then I am convinced that the second shot had a depression in the paint at the roof mount. Mitchell

I'm led to believe there are a few examples that don't 😉 but generally all do....
(based on some research from a very keen dubber)
would love to run the telefunken one when the time, radio and cash allows for it...

that standard one looks good thou...
best of luck with the search...!

Thanks Guys,
Its just a shadow in that pic that makes it look like a dent.
So far from my research there was 3 brands made:
Telefunken
Hirschmann
Bosch
Repo Round🙁(still trying to find who does these)
With all the aftermarket parts available you would have thought someone would have had a copy of these made at at normal price. Might have to look into that, would be a substantial market worldwide.
Here they are in order above.
