You put the invisible antenna along the frame of your windsheild. on mine it really IS invisible except for a small length i messed up, but for $5, i'll redo it during the summer.

My power antenna was broken and wouldn't even go DOWN all the way, so just to eliminate something sticking 1/2 way up i chopped it off with tin snips out of spite

I haven't removed the old power antenna totally though, yet... that'll come off at piant time. I can't imagine it looking anything but awesome

I have Actually Cut the Stock Antennea Out and there's a lil hole from where it was I was thinking on maybe putting some fiberglass filler in back of it sanding it down and painting it and I think it'll look pretty kick *** .....So Maybe I'll take some pictures....I had a lil trouble getting the fender off so I had to pull up the Antennea a bit and Use a Saw to snip it off.....Only minimal Damage to the panel nothing that can't be sanded....So that'll look cool after it's all done.....Where did any of you put the Invisible Antennea though is it just as good as the old one or if not equal or greater in quality....And will it go into my reciever.....(Pioneer DEHP-47DH) it does have a power Antennea jack....And maybe what model at Radio Shack did you use?????
