Default Xm Radio antenna's ???

Just hooked up my xm using an old terk xm antenna( big a** thing). I am looking to get a new one that is alot smaller and better looking cause it is mounted where the rear window squirter was. Can anyone give me suggestions or post some pics of nice looking xm antenna's ?

There are tons of really small ones now. Also, you don't have to mount it on the outside of the car. Mine is on the inside rear strut bar and I get perfect reception.

I had mine on the strut but had too many drop offs and now get better reception with the antenna on the roof.

Has anyone used the XMICRO on a roadster installation. I have thought about mounting the radio in the NAV compartment and the antenna between the defroster outlets just behind the oil gauge.
