They dont have antennas sticking up... Its integrated into the rear windshield!

You really wanna just buy a dummy antenna and 3m tape it onto the car???

Most new cars have the antenna integrated into the rear windshield, as having a metal rod sticking out of the car can be a hazard in certian instances - the antenna looks basically like your defroster lines, but its just at the top of your rear windshield...

I think someone went around to all our coupes and stole them all!!!!!!!!

no seriously, you can buy them at any parts shop, they use to go missing off of peoples cars cause people would seriously steal the thing. probably pay like 50+ bucks to get a new one, They usually have something sticking down so you will have to modify it or find one with a suction cup on and those are usualy bigger.

My sugggestion would be to not put it on and if you really like the thing get a CB radio or something.

if i actually would listen to the radio more, id definetly wanna buy some kind of extra support for the stock antenna. our stocks are garbage, i think i have worst radio reception than i did on my first car, a 98 altima.

I've got the basic non-bose system and can't complain about reception. Pretty much what I'd expect from regular FM radio.

Agree with Marisha on this one.

I make a LOT of trips from Central Ohio to Michigan and I used to make even more in my Blazer. The radio signal is VERY similar in both cars...even a little better on the AM side. Most of my trips are Friday Night or Sunday Afternoon when the Detroit Tigers are playing so I would listen to them on AM. I could hear the engine noise on my Blazer and don't get anything on my Coupe. Maybe because the antenna was on the front for the Blazer and in the WAY back for the Coupe.

Wait, I feel really stupid now. So is the one on the top of my car just the XM antenna?

It comes with the Premium Package. I have the convenience package and I still don't have it. Like it was mentioned above, it's for XM Radio

Lol, ahhhhhhhh. So that's what you were talking about. Yea man, that's for XM. When I read your first post I was thinking to myself, "What the f*** does he mean that his car didn't come with an antenna?"
