High Level Reverse Sensors Required
Expensive mistake this morning. Looking on the brightside, the satnav still works with two severed wires and main part of the fin missing.

Lucky there was not more damage Discovery 3 se gone
Range rover sport supercharged here:)
The antenna you've knocked off is for Sirius Satellite Radio, which is only available in North America. I think it also works in series with the DAB antenna in the side window. Could never figure out why LR bothered installing this on the European cars. If you've got DAB radio give that a try and see if there's any effect.
Note: The SatNav GPS antenna is buried under the high level stop lamp.
Anyway, did the same as you reversing into a parking space. Replaced everything including the ring that is bonded to the glass roof. Antenna LR031943. Ring EFT500041. The screws that came with mine to attach the antenna to the mounting ring were "six point star security" screws. Had to go out and buy a new driver specifically for this job.

Ronch - That's interesting and explains why everything still works. I did wonder what was the purpose of the missing part. The stealer said it boosted the signal and wanted just under £500 to fix. Took it to my local independant and they will do it for £200.
Geoffsnook - Yes it could of been a whole lot worse if the wooden beam was an inch lower.Discovery 4 HSE Santorini Black 2012
