What antenna do you guys use?
Tuesday, November 28, 2006 10:43 PM
I shaved my antenna and i was goin to use one of those autoloc type ones, the ones with a box then to slim peices comin out of each end, but i cant get the damn thing to stick to my back window and i was just goin to get a male -to-male connector and connect the male of the hidden to the male of the stock antenna wiring in the car but that didn't tunr out so good. So what are all you guys using when u shaved your antenna?



I NEED A 00-02 SUNFIRE RK SPORT REAR LIP AND A 95-99 SUNFIRE WW FRONT LIP PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF U WANNA SELL!!

after postin this i searched ebay and i found this kinda weird antenna
http://cgi.ebay.com/AM-FM-Self-Grounding-Dipole-Antenna-Buy-It-Now-2-99-ce_W0QQitemZ280054438416QQihZ018QQcategoryZ50553QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
would that work if i found a male-to-male connector and just ran it up to the roof and taped it right next to the window under the headliner?

Use a little bit of rubbing alcohol on the spot where you are going to tape it (to clean the glass).

dont use the autoloc one, it blows. the one metra makes is MUCH better, ive had both.

i agree with above...GET SIRIUS or XM...MUCH better.

I've done that, lost a little reception, but not enough to worry
