Guys,
How can i join together 2 mieces of car ariel coax?
Is there a special joint thing out there for the job?
Cheers

does it have to be pretty and OEish? you can solder the centre core together, tape it up, pull the sheilding back over the tape and tape up again.

works perfectly well IME. it's a bit of a bodge but not terrible. you could get a male DIN hardwire plug and a female hardwire DIN plug and join it that way but the above is more reliable.

ETA : there's one of these for £2 alternatively
