Default Tune Trapper Hidden Antenna

Hi all
Has anyone had any experience with this manufacturers hidden antenna?
They state that it will work behind steel, as in the trunk of our xk's
Thanks for any input
Jeremy

IMHO a PC of s**t! I tried mounting it everywhere I could run the wire, ended up with it attached to the inside of the rear glass and it still worked like crap. I'm on a small island not even looking for long distance signals. Sent the manufacture several emails and no replies. You will need a European adapter to connect it to the radio cable in the trunk.
