Review: Great radio reception in my 2001 A4! - Ordered this for my 2001 Audi A4 and it works great!. If you are installing an aftermarket radio in this car, this adapter is a must. Don't waste your time on an unamplified adapter like I did, this car requires an amplified antenna to get any sort of radio reception. Installation was easy, just connect the blue wire to your new radio's amplifier turn on wire and plug in the other 2 ends and you are all set! Review: Great for Porsche 996 - Porsche 996 antenna is the thin black line on the windshield. They are notorious for having poor radio reception. The powered antenna is quickly forget on in the aftermarket world but this adapter ensured the reception was better then before. ## Features - Powered version of 40-VW10 to aftermarket radio - Mini version of 40-VW53 for use in applications with little room - Designed with the user and installer in mind - Tested for function in a real world environment ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0007WW67G | | AntennaDescription | Radio | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,519 in Car Audio & Video Antennas | | Brand | Metra | | Color | BLACK | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (338) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00086429082254 | | Item Type Name | Vw Amplified Antenna Adapter | | Manufacturer | Metra Electronics Corp | | UPC | 086429082254 163121225292 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 year | ## Product Details - **Antenna:** Radio - **Brand:** Metra - **Color:** BLACK - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00086429082254 - **Manufacturer:** Metra Electronics Corp - **Number of Items:** 1 - **UPC:** 086429082254 163121225292 ## Images ![Metra 40-VW54 VW Amplified Antenna Adapter, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/3186IQwjnpL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Customer Package Type, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great radio reception in my 2001 A4! *by A***W on March 14, 2016* Ordered this for my 2001 Audi A4 and it works great!.

They are notorious for having poor radio reception. The powered antenna is quickly forget on in the aftermarket world but this adapter ensured the reception was better then before. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Put this is my 2000 VW jetta, and wow, night and day difference. *by A***X on September 11, 2013* Just recently replaced my stock head unit, i didn't want to replace the door speakers because jetta has a pretty decent stock speaker system. So i picked up this, and man night and day difference in the quality of radio stations. more base, no crackling when i go under trees or bridges. if your replacing your head unit, and you don't have one of these. You might as well get one because it really cleans up the radio stations. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/9263009-metra-40-vw54-vw-amplified-antenna-adapter-black](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/9263009-metra-40-vw54-vw-amplified-antenna-adapter-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
