GSM/GPS/FM antenna for bimmer

mick.fr

Hi guys,

I am looking for an antenna that would combine several antennas in one unit.
I am fed up with my poor E46 FM/AM reception and the poor vodafone signals in many places where I actually work, even if they are very well populated areas.

I found this, anyone has ever bought and used one?

Yeah I am trying to get some feedback first from this forum and another one, if it looks good, I will buy one and install it and let you know.

Your E46 antenna is built into your rear windscreen (Well that's what I was told) People were having trouble with the rear de-mister affecting radio reception... BMW's answer was to replace the rear windscreen :eek:

The only problem is the crappy number of radio transmitters and small radios in this country.
There are only a very few good radios here, and I can't get them properly.
When I am in UK with my car, I have no problem to get a lot of radios.
But for sure, bimmer's antenna can be improved, reason why I am looking for an antenna extension.

I am having the same problems with my A6, losing reception on radio stations like 2FM and Today FM where in my last car, a mondeo, I had no problems whatsoever keeping the signal.. so something like that might sort it..

Anyone having the same problems with an Audi?
