Question My Z's Antenna

I am a new owner of a 2003 Z and my antenna sucks really bad . . . has anyone else had this problem and if so do you have any suggestions for a replacement antenna?

Thanks!

I bought it used . . . I dont have any pictures yet. I think the antenna is stock though. Nothing was really done to the car except tinted windows which the dealer took off when I bought it unfortunately.

Get the S2K antenna.

It looks really good (once it straightens out )

Another possibility is if you have the Bose system. The Bose in the 2003s had a history of being bad, and there were a couple of TSBs to replace them. (TSB NTB03086 - Bose Audio Amplifier Customer Satisfaction Initiative, and NTB 03087 - Bose Audio System - Sound Clarity). If you have the Bose system you may want to contact a dealer to see if the one in your car is the upgraded one.

I upgraded the whole system. The FM reception is very poor, as it was when I had the stock system. Not sure if there is anything that would amplify the FM signal or not. Anyone know?
