Hi,

I just had a thought.. My new truck came with trial xm radio (shark fin antenna) and obviously the regular radio antenna.

I was wondering if it was a possibility to send a radio wire to the shark fin and get rid of the long skinny antenna on the front. It's probably too much work, but curious if anyone has done it.

Thx
