I have a broken off nub on the roof, and plugged in the cable that was in the dash when I put in a modern radio. Who knows what or if it connects anywhere. Radio works within and beyond cities to about 20-30 miles. I run the Bluetooth more, so it hasn't risen to "change or improve" place on the master list.

If you stick it to the fiberglass part of the roof it ought to do about as well as the GM windshield antennas. Stick it to the aluminum, ain't gonna do very well.

Yeah the modern radio that I have to install in my dash also has Blue tooth
as well as a wired USB connection/charger. AM/FM isn't a priority of mine,
and I won't be installing an external antenna, but I figured since I'll have
the cap down anyway I may as well install a hidden antenna to at least try
to get some reception.

Thanks Gene. I had surgery yesterday and it was a complete success! 6-8 weeks to recover and I should be back to work, and I will slowly begin tinkering with the GMC in that time too.
