Description
Antenna for Citroën C4, C5, C8, Peugeot 308 and others. Available to purchase from us as a set with the mast.
High-quality replacement roof antenna designed for a range of Citroën and Peugeot models. This antenna restores reliable AM/FM reception and radio performance where the original unit shows signs of wear or mechanical damage. Commonly searched under OE codes 9655613780 and 6561Z9, the part is suited for professional workshops and skilled DIY enthusiasts who maintain Stellantis vehicles. The compact design allows direct swap-in for many factory-fitted antenna housings and—depending on the version—can be supplied together with the external mast (rod) for a complete replacement.

Function And Fitment Notes
The antenna unit provides radio signal reception for the vehicle’s audio system. Depending on the original equipment specification, the unit may be a simple passive antenna or include an integrated amplifier. Fitment must match the roof mounting and connector type of the vehicle—verify the OE code (9655613780 / 6561Z9) when searching. The part is intended as a direct replacement for the listed Citroën and Peugeot models; compatibility with other models may apply when the mounting and connector are identical.
Installation Recommendations
- Prepare Tools: Basic hand tools, trim removers, and a wrench or socket for the antenna retaining nut. If the mast is included, keep appropriate pliers for removal/installation.
- Access: Remove any interior roof trim or headliner access panels to reach the antenna retaining nut and cable connector. Protect upholstery and trim when lowering panels.
- Disconnect: Before disconnecting electrical connectors, ensure the ignition is off. It is good practice to isolate the battery if you will be working near electrical circuits or metal roof parts, to avoid short circuits.
- Removal: Unscrew the retaining nut securing the antenna from the roof. Carefully feed the cable through the roof aperture and disconnect the coax/antenna connector from the radio or amplifier module.
- Installation: Fit new gasket/seal (use a new seal where possible), feed the cable, connect the coax connector securely and fasten the retaining nut. Reinstall trim and test reception before final reassembly.
- Testing: Check AM/FM reception and any amplified functions. If reception is weak after replacement, inspect coax continuity, connector corrosion, and ground contact.
Why The Part Fails Most Often
- Mechanical Damage: Mast or external elements can be bent or snapped by car washes, low clearances, or impacts.
- Water Ingress And Corrosion: Seals degrade over time, allowing moisture into the antenna base or connector which causes corrosion and loss of contact.
- Connector Or Cable Failure: Coax connectors and cables can become corroded, crushed, or suffer broken cores that reduce signal quality.
- Amplifier Fault (If Present): Integrated amplifiers can fail electrically, causing poor or no reception even if the antenna mast appears intact.
Search Tips: Customers often find this part by entering OE numbers 9655613780 or 6561Z9. If the mast is missing or damaged, consider purchasing the antenna together with the mast for a complete replacement.
