Need new Sirius Antenna... suggestions?

Somebody decided that they wanted mine

I have the factory (2006) Sirius setup... Are all the antenna's the same? I'd love to pickup something locally.

Thanks!

Got them on the site:

Sirius Satellite Radio Roof Mount Antenna
http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...roducts_id=379

These are the correct antennas for the Sirius modules, unlike the ones in Circuit City/Best Buy.

Tom-

Will this antenna work if mounted within the rear spoiler? I have a stock BMW Sirius antenna (not sure which generation though), is this Terk model the smallest that is available on the market?

This will fit in the spoiler, this is how we perform all of our X5 installs.

Since it is magnetic, and according to the installation info I've seen, needs to be mounted to a large metal surface, how do you mount it in the spoiler (and to what)?

We use double-sided tape instead. There is plenty of mounting surface inside the spoiler.
