    802.11b/g for Crown Vic. Police Interceptor

    I am looking for a 802.11b/g external wireless antenna that will look "cop-ish" on a '97 Crown Vic P.I.
    There is already a hole in the trunk lid, where their antenna used to be, so I'd simply like to fill the spot with one.


    Something like:

    Images are of the hole in my trunk lid, plugged with a rubber stopper thingy.


    Any thoughts or ideas??

    Yea, don't use that antenna, they're kinda crap.

    Since you already got the holes. I'd go with one of these,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I just posted that image to say that I'm looking for an antenna that looks like that one - something that looks like it would be on a cop car.

    The one you posted is only 3dBi (kind of weak, no?).

    Any other recommendations? I'm looking for a strong signal and something with a "police car" look (if possible).

    The antenna was just a suggestion, it's still better than the one you posted. They have higher gain antennas on the same page as the one I linked to. If you use the nmo mount, you won't have cables all over the place on top of the deck. If you use one with a radome you won't have to worry as much about people bending your antenna. People can be asses sometimes, especially to a car that looks like an unmarked cruiser.
