Ford C-Max Aerial Replacement Parts

The Ford C-Max ran across two main generations: the Mk1 (2003–2010) and the Mk2 (2010–2019, with a facelift around 2015). The aerial base, grommet, and plug design can differ between these generations, so a Mk1 aerial may not locate or connect correctly on a Mk2. If your car sits either side of that 2010 boundary, confirm with the breaker that the part matches your exact registration before buying.

The Mk2 C-Max was facelifted in 2015, so a 2014 aerial comes from the pre-facelift Mk2 and a 2016 aerial from the post-facelift version. In many cases the roof grommet and base design remained consistent across the Mk2 run, but whether the facelift brought any detail changes to the aerial mount is worth checking. Confirm with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

For aerials, trim level generally does not affect fitment – a Zetec and a Titanium on the same generation C-Max share the same roof grommet and aerial base design. You might notice minor cosmetic differences such as the finish or style of the aerial mast between higher and lower trims, so check the appearance if that matters to you. Functionally, the same generation is what counts, not the trim badge.

The Grand C-Max is a longer, seven-seat variant and is a distinct body from the standard five-seat C-Max, both sold from around 2010 onwards. While both share platform and generation dates, the roof profile and grommet position can differ between the two body styles. It is worth confirming with the breaker whether the aerial from a Grand C-Max will locate correctly on your standard C-Max before purchasing.

No – whether your C-Max has a petrol or diesel engine makes no difference to aerial fitment, as the aerial is mounted on the roof and has no connection to the drivetrain. The generation and body style are what matter, not the engine. Stick to sourcing from the same generation C-Max and you can disregard engine variants entirely.

Make sure the aerial base, grommet, and any wiring plug from the donor car match your generation of C-Max (Mk1 2003–2010 or Mk2 2010–2019). Check the mast style if you care about appearance, as different trim levels or markets occasionally used different mast designs. Always give the breaker your registration so they can verify the part against your specific car.
