Please Help!!! Want to buy a LR4
Hi everybody I'm new here and I've negotiated for a 2011 LR4 that I'm really excited about but I have one major problem. The entrance to my common garage is too short for the Nav/Sat antenna on the roof by about 1 inch...
I've been searching and searching for an alternative solution, but haven't been able to find one. This is a make or break thing for my family as we live far from outdoor parking and it just wouldn't be practical...
Anyone heard of anything different for the antenna?
Thanks in advance

The aerial antenna isn't for the GPS, it's for the sirius radio, and HD radio. The GPS antenna, for the nav, is underneath the 3rd brake light. The antenna can be removed, or replaced with generic, but it may not look great, and there is a hole in the roof that will need to be filled properly to keep water out.

Yeah, that would be fine, as far as functionality go. You may need to look a little to find one that will connect right up. I would talk to a good car audio shop before anything else.

Here's where I'm at so far: I ended up buying the truck yesterday! What happened was the dealer referred me to the body shop that does all of their work to see if they had some experience with the roof mounted antenna. The owner of the body shop was incredibly knowledgable and helpful. He ended up just unscrewing the antenna and bam all thats there is a bracket glued onto the glass top and a black and white wire coming thru a small gap between the glass and the roof (no holes). Anyone know how I could attach a sat/HD antenna to those two wires?

I am in a similar boat. It just makes no sense to me to have a 3" tall antenna just to house the Sat radio. I measured almost 6'6" to the top of the "wart". I would love to remove it like I did with the LR3 but the wife is still using the Sat radio. I find the sound quality awful so I won't miss it.
There is no hole with the plastic removed.. Just a small tab with a wire..
