Since you are adding a regular antenna you WILL need a longer coaxial cacle for the antenna, just start at the radio. The C-pillar cover where the LR seat belt comes out would have to be removed otherwise.

I am putting in a little stubby one I got from Pepboys..
It is only about an inch high, but I have to drill thru the rear fender.. I am having problem getting a good ground.. I might have to run another wire to the frame from the antenna. I will post some pictures when I am done.

Do you really think it will sound better with a new amp? I'd think you'd need to replace the speakers as well, and maybe even the head unit... Looking forward to the pics...
