Default Half Height Aerial Mod

hey guys. was wondering if anyone still had the half height aerial mod that was on the old AUfalcon site.
Lost mine on my PC a while ago and have been wanting to do it and make it look like a factory jobbie

I have seen them ... they are more of a stick on coil for the rear window.
Not sure how they stack up against an external aerial though ... but if you want they clean look .... it's worth it.

Also depends on your tint as well (although I think this only affects AM reception with metallic tint).
