Description
Antenna for CITROËN C4, C5, C8 and PEUGEOT 308 and others
This high-quality replacement antenna is designed for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles and matches common OEM references used by Stellantis. Ideal for professional workshops and DIY mechanics, the antenna restores reliable radio reception and fits as a direct replacement for the listed models. The part is often searched by its product codes, so finding the correct reference (9655613780 / 6561Z9 / 6561W5) speeds up procurement and installation.
Benefits include straightforward fitment, robust weather-resistant construction, and compatibility with factory mounts and cabling in the specified vehicles. The antenna restores AM/FM reception performance and integrates with vehicles that use an external aerial mast or roof-mounted antenna base. It is a practical spare part for routine repairs after mechanical damage or signal degradation.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Stellantis (Citroën / Peugeot)
- Model: Citroën C4, Citroën C5, Citroën C8, Peugeot 308, Peugeot 807
- Product Codes: 9655613780, 6561Z9, 6561W5
- Other Numbers: 6587J0
Installation Recommendations
Fitment is generally straightforward for experienced technicians. Typical installation steps:
- Park the vehicle on a level surface and disconnect the negative battery terminal to avoid short circuits while working on electrical components.
- Remove any interior trim or headliner sections required to access the antenna mounting nut from inside the roof or remove the external protection cap if applicable.
- Unscrew the retaining nut and carefully disconnect the antenna coaxial cable and any power plug for an integrated amplifier.
- Install the new antenna, ensure the sealing gasket is correctly positioned to prevent water ingress, reconnect the cable and any power connector, then torque the retaining nut to the manufacturer’s specification.
- Reassemble trim/headliner, reconnect the battery, and verify radio reception and any amplified reception function. Adjust seating to ensure watertight fit.
Why This Part Fails
- Mechanical Damage: Impact, theft attempts, or hammering during car washes can bend or break the mast or base.
- Corrosion and Water Ingress: Seals and connectors can corrode over time, degrading electrical contact and allowing water into the base.
- Cable Or Connector Faults: Damaged coaxial cable or corroded connectors reduce signal quality or interrupt antenna power for amplified systems.
- Amplifier Failure: Some antennas include a small amplifier; age or moisture can cause the amplifier to fail, resulting in poor reception.
Practical Tips
- Always Compare Product Codes: Match the codes printed on your old antenna with the numbers listed above to ensure correct fitment.
- Check Sealing During Reassembly: Proper sealing prevents future water-related failures.
- Inspect Coaxial Cable Condition: Replace or reseat damaged cables and connectors to restore optimum reception.
Order this antenna if your vehicle displays weak or intermittent radio reception, visible antenna damage, or if the mounting/base shows signs of corrosion. The referenced product codes (9655613780, 6561Z9, 6561W5) are commonly used identifiers for this part and will help you confirm fitment quickly.
