    If you put a longer antenna on make sure it isn't going to rub on anything. I put a longer one on my hatchback and it rubs the trunk when it's open. Eventually it'll wear the paint away for me which i anxiously await.

    reception! I got the stubby stock antenna on the G4. Is ok inside the city but 20 miles out and it spotty. My Lancer was able to catch AM640 from LA all thru SFO.
