I got the TT1E antenna. I found the adapter on crutchfield.com

How's reception quality/mounting locations? I'm wondering if the location individuals have placed them is similar to a Faraday cage?

Yeah that's the same one I got. Maybe I'll mount it somewhere else to see if I can get the other stations.

I get good sound quality on the stations I still get, no static or anything like that.

Where I put mine is (FD btw) in the most rear of the car, between the tail lights and the plastics, where it's hidden. I might put it under the rear strut bar and see if it get's the other stations though.

So, what did you guys do about the antenna hole?

i actually just put in a body plug from my spare fd chassis for now i will fill it later when the bodywork gets done.

I had mine filled in when the body work was done.

So is that location (on the FD) surrounded by plastic or is there steel there? I'm curious because i'm debating if this will work on the FC (steel all the way around), or if I'm going to be SOL when it comes to hidden antenna.

It's light weight steel support near the center. The antenna has a square plastic piece with double sided tape that puts the plastic antenna shaft about 1/8-1/4 in. off the metal.

^I never actually mounted mine, I just laid it in there.

Like he said, there is a little bit of metal, but it's mostly the rear plastics enclosing it. Its not really like a metal cage around it.

I have the hidden antenna from autoloc mounted on the glass near the top of the hatch. It is powered and works really well. You cant even see it unless you know its there.

I haven't tried hidden antenna and I think I'll always go for the normal one.
