>> that's awesome, can you explain how you connected to your factory antenna?
Basically I de-soldered the original 1-foot length of solid copper wire that was the original fm antenna in the radioshark. Then I soldered in a short piece of insulated wire, and connected that to the positive terminal on a motorola style jack that I got from radio shack. I didn't know if I should connect the ground of the jack to anything, so I left it unconnected (any ideas?). Just using the positive connection, the FM reception is 1000% better. I probably could have skipped the soldering and just snipped off the original fm wire and connected that to the jack. The stock antenna wire from the car just plugs right into the motorola jack (see my project website for more detailed pics/descriptions).
