This is a very good quality, brand new, chrome automatic electric aerial, power antenna supplied by Hirschmann of Germany. It is a Hirschmann HIT AUTA 2050, part number 602433001, 602433-001.

Hirschmann supplied this type of mid-range aerial to BMW, Ford, Peugeot as original aerial in the 1980’s and 1990’s.

Although it is not Hirschmann’s premium aerial (Mercedes and Jaguar approved AUTA 6000 series which ceased to be manufactured in 2015, it is made to Hirschmann’s high standards and is superior to copies which are now widely available from China but which have inferior specification and poorer quality chrome plating.

A mounting hole size of 19 to 22 mm is recommended, but the antenna neck will actually fit through a hole size as small as 13.5 mm with minor modification to the underwing/fender fitting.
