Re: low profile antenna
This is a good topic. What antennas can be mounted under the dash, or under the vehicle? Will just any old one do? I don't want mine visible.

Re: low profile antenna
Most sound shops should carry them. They are small and some have signal boosters like mine did. Mine was black plastic and was mounted with 2 way tape.

Here's mine
This is my $20 solution. The instructions said to mount it on any non-metallic surface.
