Functions of the shark fin antenna on Geely Boyue: (1) The shark fin can enhance signal reception.

When installing the Geely Boyue shark fin antenna, first clean the roof surface to ensure it is free of dust and grease. You can use alcohol wipes for thorough cleaning, as this step is crucial for ensuring strong adhesion. Peel off the protective film from the double-sided tape on the back of the shark fin, find the optimal position (usually the center of the roof is recommended), gently press it into place, and apply firm pressure for over 30 seconds to ensure a secure bond. After installation, let it sit for a few hours to allow the adhesive to fully cure—avoid touching or washing the car during this time. If the antenna has signal functionality, test the radio or GPS reception while driving. If the signal is weak, slight position adjustments may be needed. Choose a sunny day for installation, as the adhesive bonds better in dry conditions, reducing the risk of detachment. I’ve used a similar method—it’s simple, effective, and low-cost. DIY installation saves on repair shop fees and enhances the car’s appearance, making it look cooler. Before installation, check if the shark fin is compatible with your car model to avoid fitment issues. The entire process takes about half an hour if done carefully—prioritize safety and don’t rush.
