Car antennas in the UAE: prices, fitting and warranty checks

Updated 5 November 2026

A short car antenna in the UAE costs about AED 33 to 92, and a rubber or spiral antenna about AED 51 to 158, according to sellers' websites in November 2026. Carbon-fibre bullet antennas cost more, from about AED 162 to 226. For a model that fits your car, send a request on BlaBlaPrice with the car's make and model, and sellers reply in the chat.

The prices are for the antenna itself, so ask whether fitting is included in the offer. Listings give lengths in inches, so convert them before you compare: 5 inches is about 13 cm.

Warranty and genuine parts

Manufacturer warranty terms in the region can exclude damage caused by parts that are not genuine, so check your car's warranty before fitting an accessory. ESMA is cracking down on counterfeit parts, and cheap look-alike parts can harm the vehicle, so ask the seller where the part comes from. Vehicle components sold in the UAE should follow the GSO standards that apply across the GCC states.

Heat and season for fitting

The mild winter from November to March is the easiest time to fit an antenna outdoors. From May to September the heat is very strong, so plan the work for the early morning or the evening, and avoid working on a car that has been parked in the sun.

Mounting, connector and what to write in the request

Give the antenna type, the mounting location, the connector, the car make, model and year, and the quantity you need. Mention whether you want a signal amplifier, and name your delivery city among Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and Al Ain. State your budget in AED, and give the length in centimetres if the fit matters to you.

Requests on BlaBlaPrice are free for buyers. You describe the antenna and your car in your own words in the chat, and a photo can be added. The AI reads the request, asks for missing details and looks through sellers' websites and price lists in the UAE, then shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers reply with their own price and terms, and your contacts stay hidden until you decide. Start with a request or read how it works.
