Well i finally got me hands on an antenna at last, so eagerly i installed it in my peugot 406. WOW now this does set the tom tom go off into a top notch sat nav system. Took me ten minutes to install was dead easy. Heres how i did mine if it helps anyone.
Attached inside windscreen to side off mirror on the spotted zones, got a mirror pad from car shop. Stuck it on the back gps magnetic pad so it faces in the car but ya wouldnt believe it , how good it works.
Just been driveing localy for 2 hrs in biult up areas never lost signal once.
Average sats picked up 8. Worst 2 best 11 not bad hey , id recomend it to anyone haveing trouble with signals. Laughing

:D :o

It means the zone around your rear-view mirror, which is often adorned with spots but is not athermic.
