I haven't heard of one that really works well. I have one from Dakota Digital in my Sonoma but it doesn't work worth a crap. Most people have taken a normal antenna and hidden it somewhere either in the engine compartment, under the car or in the interior somewhere and claim to have good reception with it. Just get XM or Sirius and give up on FM!

put the antenna behind the rear view mirror, you should also shave the door handles.
