yeh, but we want an invisible antenna and not have to drill
holes in the roof if at all possible. hope someone sells either
a stick-on type antenna or at least an antenna we can
route in the ceiling without having to have to drill the roof.

i guess im kinda against drilling stuff on the roof. hahaha.

yep, my 98 prelude was one of the first cars to have
integrated antenna in the rear window. its great.

at least they could've put on a mechanical pole antenna
on our wrx's.

I bought one of those from crutchfield for my civic ... my radio signal improved a little bit, it was worth it though. They are really easy to install.

Are there any different antennas out there we can just replace the stock one with? I think that would be the easiest solution.. maybe one of those is300-like antennas with a little mod will fit on....

Have any of you seen an antenna on the 04' wrxs? every picture I've seen there isn't an antenna... do you think they might have put it into the back window?

damn, they told me that the part is not instock and backordered for a week or 2weeks. i cancelled the order and will reorder when they come in. i dont want my $80 floating around.

last time I did this with another store, they charged my card
and never shipped...card company sent me a bill which i disputed ofcourse, but just a pita.

the antenna is a box you adhere to the front window.
its a size of your palm.

If you hate the antenna that much (as I do), buy XM Satellite. MUCH better!! Had my local shop mount the XM antenna on the rear deck (inside the car). I haven't listened to FM/AM in the three weeks I've had XM. My antenna is not retracted at all... all nice and compact. But yeah its ugly as all get out.
