I have the stock radio in my vehicle and the antenna base appears to be going again. As this is the second replacement antenna base I have put on this car since purchasing it used five years ago I am wondering if there is an alternative amplified antenna available that will last longer than the stock unit. As I listen to both AM and FM radio I would need one that is functionally identical with the stock unit.
If a good alternative exists where can I purchase it for the best price?
If there is no alternative to the stock antenna base is there any way to improve the longevity of the amplifier?
The stock unit is part number 1J0 035 505E in case you need it for comparison.
