The AP42B is a universal 3-section stainless steel car antenna from Aerpro with an adjustable split ball base for 25mm mounting holes and a spring base for overhead protection. The mast extends to 100cm and the kit includes a 137cm cable. Suitable for universal vehicle applications requiring an external AM/FM antenna.
The Aerpro AP42B is a universal aftermarket car antenna designed for vehicles requiring an external AM/FM antenna mount. The split ball base adjusts to fit a standard 25mm mounting hole and allows the antenna angle to be set to suit the vehicle's body panel angle at the mounting point. The spring base allows the antenna to deflect on impact and return to its upright position, protecting the mast from damage when passing through overhead obstructions such as car wash brushes or low-clearance areas.
The 3-section stainless steel mast extends to 100cm for optimal AM/FM signal reception and can be collapsed for transport or storage. A 137cm cable is included for routing from the antenna base to the head unit antenna input inside the vehicle cabin. Connector type for the cable termination is not confirmed in the available source data. Contact us to confirm the cable connector type before purchasing if compatibility with your head unit antenna input is a requirement.
Adjustable split ball base for 25mm mounting holes: The split ball base fits a standard 25mm antenna mounting hole and allows the antenna angle to be adjusted to suit the body panel angle at the mounting point, providing a clean, upright antenna position across different vehicle mounting locations.
Spring base for overhead protection: The spring base allows the antenna mast to deflect when it contacts an overhead obstruction and return to its upright position, protecting the mast and mounting hardware from damage in car washes and low-clearance areas.
3-section stainless steel mast extending to 100cm: The 3-section stainless steel mast extends to 100cm for AM/FM signal reception and can be collapsed for transport, storage, or low-clearance situations.
137cm cable included: A 137cm cable is included for routing from the antenna base to the head unit antenna input inside the vehicle cabin.

What size mounting hole does the AP42B require?
The AP42B fits a standard 25mm antenna mounting hole. The adjustable split ball base allows the antenna angle to be set to suit the body panel angle at the mounting point.
What does the spring base protect against?
The spring base allows the antenna mast to deflect when it contacts an overhead obstruction such as a car wash brush or low-clearance structure, and then return to its upright position. This protects the mast and mounting hardware from impact damage.
Can the mast be collapsed for transport or storage?
Yes. The 3-section stainless steel mast can be collapsed when not in use for transport, storage, or when passing through low-clearance areas where the extended mast height would be a concern.
What connector does the cable terminate in?
The cable connector type is not confirmed in the available source data. Contact us to confirm the cable connector type before purchasing if compatibility with your specific head unit antenna input is a requirement.
Is the AP42B compatible with all vehicles?
The AP42B is a universal antenna designed to fit any vehicle with a standard 25mm antenna mounting hole. Contact us to confirm suitability for your specific vehicle before purchasing.
