I am thinking of doing this, or perhaps I should just upgrade to a xm radio instead. Diversity antenna has Sattelite Radio antenna built in doesn't it? The only thing is the look like crap on the top of the car. I wonder how well they would work inside the car?

Radio reception should be great. Did you change something already?
