Shark Fin
I've seen some have a 'shark fin' antenna. Is that just for asthetics or does it really provide better AM/FM radio reception? I wouldn't think it would pick up much unless it's only used for SAT.

i just did this mod about a month ago, the sharkfin makes the car look 10x better and the reception is about the same. Possibly a little bit worse but the benifits of the looks outweigh the negatives of the slightly less reception imo

I understand it's a good place to hide your SAT antenna.
Plus the one out of Canadahas a dummy load coil built in. And if you live inor near a populated area, I wouldn't think the reception would suffer noticeably.

It's the same one XenonStore carries, but it can be had directly too. www.visualgarage.com
