Ford S-Max Aerial Replacement Parts

The S-Max ran in two main generations: the first generation from 2006 to 2015 (with a facelift around 2010), and the second generation from 2015 onwards. Within the same generation the roof-mounted aerial base and mast are generally the same across the range, but crossing the 2015 boundary into a different generation is less certain — confirm with the breaker against your registration before buying.

The 2010 facelift was largely cosmetic, and the roof aerial mounting point and mast design remained consistent across the first generation (2006–2015). A pre-facelift aerial will very likely fit a post-facelift first-gen car, but confirm with the breaker against both registrations to be sure, as small running changes can occur mid-production.

Trim level does not affect aerial fitment on the S-Max; the roof aerial is the same part regardless of whether the car is a Zetec, Titanium, or any other trim grade. You may notice cosmetic differences in colour or finish if the breaker's car is a different shade, but the mounting and connection are the same, so any trim-level example from the correct generation should suit your car.

The S-Max and Galaxy share the same platform and were built alongside each other, and in many cases the roof aerial is interchangeable between the two models from the same generation. This is worth exploring if S-Max-specific stock is scarce, but confirm with the breaker against both registrations as subtle body differences can occasionally affect fit.

First-generation S-Max models (2006–2015) were fitted with a traditional mast-style roof aerial as standard. Some second-generation (2015 onwards) cars may have been fitted with a shark-fin style aerial depending on specification, so it is worth confirming the aerial style on the breaker's donor car matches what is currently on your vehicle before purchasing.

Engine type has no bearing on aerial fitment — the roof aerial is the same part regardless of whether the donor car was petrol or diesel. Focus your search on matching the generation and body style rather than the engine, and confirm with the breaker against your registration to make sure the part is from the correct generation.
