Default antenna for 89 S4?

The booster on my OEM antenna decided it didnt want to anymore so bought what i thought was a replacement, said online for VW Passat/Jetta. Problem is while it solves the reception issue it is much more vertical than the OEM one..

Anyone have part number, etc. for one which matches the angle better?

Tried search but after 30+ threads....

If I remember correctly the one at this link is a close approximation of the OEM unit.

I replaced the antenna on my 89 GT quite some time ago. The only reference I could find in my cryptic notes about it is: Fuba Betaflex D, #17237 (45 degree); #1723 Base.

I am not sure if this is the website it was purchased through, but FWIW:
