Default Satellite Antenna

Has anyone considered one of these for the LS430.

our top antenna doesnt do anything but connect to lexuslink, and theres no more lexuslink. Installing that antenna on top wont make it connect to your radio. The radio antenna is somewhere else.

That one is an FM antenna, will not receive XM or Sirrius Sat broadcast. If someone made a sharkfin sat antenna I'd consider it over the cheesy magnetic ones.

I just removed the existing antenna, put a piece of round, black, 3M tape on the antenna, and now I have a mini-shark antenna. works fine, since it does nothing anyway.
