New Aerial Location

Senna

My car has the aerial on the rear window demister and FM reception is just rubbish. I've tried a good few different headunits with only some degree of success.
Bought one of the window mounted aerials and it was even worse, i dont want to drill the bodywork for a new normal type aerial, but i'm wondering if i got a normal antenna and fitted it lengthwise under the bonnet (not touching any part of the car) would it work or would an aerial inside the car pick-up too much interference for the car itself?

Anyone any better ideas?
And just listen to CD's doesn't count.:p

A lot of cars with the aerial built in to the rear window have a signal booster between the aerial and the head unit. It could be possible that your booster is faulty. Have you tried replacing it?

cheers for the reply, tried that and every other in-line booster and hidden aerial i could find.

Right - OK.

Maybe the fault is the screen itself. I've had plenty of cars with the antenna built into the screen and never had any problems.
