Hi all,

Just a quick question. You guys know the antenna on the roof sticking up? I was wondering if anyone ever tried taking it off? If so, how does it affect the signal etc? was it easy to take off?

If it doesn't change anything that much... I'm thinking about just taking it off and leaving it off? What do you guys think?

thanks

thanksI think that if you remove the sat antenna you will have zero reception.

If you don't have the XM receiver installed then the antenna is fake and you would have a hole in the roof if removed. If you have XM satellite reception will not work.

when my 3 month XM radio trial ends... I'll test it out and take off the antenna. I'll let you guys know what happens.
