Default Radio Antenna Question

Can anyone locate the radio antenna on the 06-07 Monte Carlo? Is it the little bubble thingy on the dashboard .... ?

Nope the bubble is actually the light sensor... Cover it up a spell, your car will turn on regular headlights and dim interior stuff thinking it's dark out.

The antenna is (from what I understand) either in the front, or the rear glass.

Im almost 100% sure the FM antenna is located in the rear of the car, on the back window, running from left to right. I belive the one on the windshield is the Keylees entry antennas for those who get the extended range key fobs. (The ones that have factory remote start) Im still working on a solution to fix up the antennas to increase the range because its no where near the 200 ft range.

Yes
The radio ant. is in the rear glass
If you have the remote problem fixed, they unhook the ant on the windshield and add an ant in the left front plier

Thanks for the info Mike, another question.. is this something that can be removed since it's not useful in my car any longer? (had it fixed, should have the antenna in the A pillar) I mean, if it's even visible.

it's visible... it's that little black connector in the top left corner of the windshield... don't think you can yank it out - it goes into the glass - that's why the TSB says to leave.. "for aesthetic reasons"
