Default Aftermarket FM Antenna

I want to buy an aftermarket am/fm antenna to mount either inside the tail light space that is available or on the outside of glass hatch. Has anyone found a good aftermarket antenna that they are happy with? Is a booster/amplifier needed?

Thanks in advance

That antenna got some good reviews. I think I'll give it a try. What do you think about buying a y adapter and using it in unison with the stock antenna?

I've never tried that in a car, might cause echoing, but could work great.
