Antenna

I was just wondering if there is any alternative to the normal large car antenna. I know some home theatre systems use a very tiny antenna and I know thats a different application but I was wondering if theirs anything on the market that would resemble that. Thanks for the help.

use a bmw or lexus antena it looks like a fin.
other than that some cars have them built into the windshield and im sure it can be done aftermarket somehow but is it really worth it?

you can get free online trials for xm and sirus... they actually are both owned by the same company now in canada but not in the us, but they do not have all the same stations. i have xm only cuz my sister works for a xm station and i get it cheep but otherwise i dont no which 1 i would get.

thought i would add you gotta look into the satalite radio reciever you get too, some send a fm signal to your car antena... so make sure your car deck has a input so you dont get stuck

Oh nice I'll check into that. Where I work some cars have XM and it seems like it has alot of variety. Do you have to buy different station packages or do you get them all?

you just get them all, it does have a lot. i really suggust using the free tryal online and really seeing what both companies are like.
and dont just flip stations actually listen to it.
with xm you get free online from any computer when you get a account.
comes in handy when you are having a party and dont wanta play DJ just plug it into some big speakers n givver
