The point of the blockoff plate is to remove your antenna. You would need to get like an aftermarket universal antenna.

If you've installed an block off plate you know how have to dig pretty deep down in your pillar to get the antenna out. Why do people want an antenna anyways? The radio is the worst thing you can listen to, period.

You do realize you can just push the antenna down a little bit, and install the plate.


Then once you get tired of not having an antenna, you can just pull it back up.

Mine didn't do that. It would only let me pull it. Oh well, I have no need for it anyways.

unless you run a universal antenna else where in the car, you cant.

I use my radio antenna as an antenna for my alarm system. I can reach a good 50-60 yards and my alarm will still chrip I also use it for the radio when Howard Stern was still on

I would never utilize one of these, but I'd like to see it.
