BMW E46 ZHP Antennae Reception

[danewilson77]

So....to possibly correct poor reception of our stock antennae, I have directed many times to remove drivers side c pillar, and check to ensure the connections are tight.

My question is......Is there a bauce, plug and play antennae for ours cars that will improve reception.

Not interested in doing any sharkfin mods.

run a really long wire up and down the c-pillar as an antenna?

My antenna reception is atrocious as well. I've been dealing with it for a few months now. I've read that it can be loose wires in the fzv module or just a crapped our one

I bet we could make a boat load by building (and selling) a plug and play antennae for E46, that had stellar reception.

Mine seems pretty good. I have used signal boosters before with good results.

Here is a link for some fm signal boosters at good prices

I had one similar to this

This is similar and not the exact that I had but I would give it a shot, looks like good feedback. Mine was from the 80's and worked great.

honestly since I took off the C-pillar and tightened the connection my radio picks up stations better than any other vehicle I've driven. :shrug:

My reception sucks. I've read that metallic based window tint adversely affects window mounted antennas.

Hmm. I may need to give this a try. My radio is kind of static-y
