Default Experiences with Hidden Antenna

Are there any good hidden antenna for FM radios? I would like to lose the one sticking out of my 99 FRC and fill in the hole, but not at the cost of decent fm reception!

:lurk:
Recent post on same topic...JPWhitney was mentioned, but couldn't find it there...I'd be interested to see where others were getting their hidden antennas and how well they work as well...

I was thinking of doing the samething. I seen in the Vette magazine volume 28 issue 3 they show one being installed. The title of the article is "shave it dont save it". They show one made by AutoLoc at http://www.autoloc.com. I havent bought one yet but they give it high ratings. The good thing about the autoloc one they say is that this one is powered. Hope that helps you out. :seeya
