Thanks. It's more sculptural, but taller. If anything, it probably provides better reception than the MINI Sport Aerial Rod, but it's not as cute as MINI's stubby alternative IMO.

 

I went with the mini sport aerial (and CF aerial cover) from SCP Automotive. They have two size options, the 8cm, which I have, and the 3.5cm, which I thought looked too short - even just from an aesthetic perspective. This is a pic I took after installation:

 

Me too… a Little car with a BIG antenna to show the attitude matters!!!

I also switched to the Sport Aerial. My husband thought it was dumb to get but I like it. It’s the only modification I made……I love my ‘Rita’ just the way she came!!!

 

So this fits in the 2023 Mini SE?

 

Indeed they do!

 

Mentioned several times in this and other threads, I got the door handle pockets and now I’m upset (mostly with myself). In an otherwise upscale interior, these bins felt (by far) like the cheapest part of the car. I chose not to adhere them until I was sure I wanted them in there permanently, and in the course of leaving them loose over the weekend, they popped out on both sides on more than one grab. The corners are sharp, and they easily marred the hard plastic door panels at the front and rear of the grab handle. I’m not sure I can hide the damage. I hadn’t yet found the need to store anything in them.
