B14 antenna options

for quite some time i've wanted to do away with that retarded front mounted antenna look on my sentra. i always think about this remote controlled car i had as a kid when i look at my antenna.... anyway, so i'm wondering about either installing a power antenna kit, or one of those Fuba roof mounted/powered antennas. i tried searching around....and found a little info about the instal of the Fuba, and that's the route i think i want to go. but then i have to somehow cover up the old antenna hole in the fender. anyone with any experience in this able to shed some light as to where to buy, the install, covering the hole, or which Fuba antenna to get? any advice is appreciated.

"This antenna design makes cars look faster." - i just got a new sig quote

i had an idea a while bak about putting a power antenna i was gonna get from one of the G20's sitting in the junk yard here, but went back the next day and they were gone, so it kinda shot that idea to hell

I got an internal one as well, I bought it online. (I think me and kwertis are talking about the same one), I put it on the top of my windshield, you almost don't see it. It's amplified and the positive wire jus taps to the radio's ACC power signal. A little Red LED is on the antenna to tell you it's working. I'll see if I can find a link. The signal's not as good as the fuba style antenna or the stock one (fuba style has the best reception b/c of position and amplification). I really like it b'c it's soo small, you can hide it anywhere.

the hidden one is the one I got. The 2 links don't seem to work, you'd prolly have to call or email the company to find out or search ebay, I've seen their products on ebay.

yea, it sounds like it's the same as mine, i also have mine on the windshield. i just ran the wires under the headliner to the A-pillar, then behind the glove box into the cd player. mine was like $15 at the local car audio shop.
