As I recall, these were a: unsightly; and b: almost as good as the
antennas
actually imbedded into the windshield. The latter was something that, as
I

What do you mean they were not outstanding in performance?  As long as
you were driving toward the transmitter, they worked fine.  On a date,
you had to park in the right orientation so that you could enjoy your
"tunes" while making out!  :)
