GPS antenna location on a NTG4.5

[Graham Shields]

Can someone please tell me which is the connection for the GPS antenna on the back of the NTG4.5. I am missing GPS from my Mappilot and have taken out the unit to put in an under the dash antenna. I was expecting a blue Fakra connector!

Any help will be much appreciated.

what model car (and year) was this out of, doesn't look like a gen 1 ntg4.5, could be gen 2 or gen 3...

Thanks. I’ve now found out that the gps aerial goes into the back of the Becker unit. So I’ve got to that by taking out the glove compartment. Instead of a simple Fakra I have 2 inputs, so I’m stuck again.....
i have read elsewhere that one is gps and one is satellite radio. I’ve also read that I should be able to just hook a new gps aerial into a connector from the roof one.....but I can’t find that join in the boot.
it’s a 2014 c class coupe....

Update. Ok there are 2 little pink tabs on the side of the plug. Taking those out allows you to remove each of the aerial cables which actually run all the way to the roof aerial without a break. So now to find a gps aerial with the correct fit.

Commandonline will sell you the correct GPS aerial.

If you call them, have your Vin# handy so they can cross check what you require.
