Antenna stuff



Here's what I would do for the stock look. Does your radio have FM? My mk1 does, but it's an 81. Anyways, buy an IPOD, those pocket sized super mp3 players. Then buy the FM modulator so you can play it through your radio. I've really wanted an IPOD and an mp3 player in my car so this is probably the way I'm going to go. The new Mini ones are cheaper, smaller and only hold slightly less songs. Can't go wrong!

I have a nice MP3 player in the 16V, the antenna's the issue. And Klaus is 
staying stock for a while, eventually I'll get a nice MP3 player for him 
too/ figure out how to conceal it to look stock. Slow careful steps on that 
car. I just want tunes for the trip, hence the antenna question, I know both 
radios work if the signal is there. It just isn't there.
