FM Antennae Options?

So I broke down and we're doing a system in the 911. Two 10" subs in a custom enclosure replacing the back seats, 6.5" separates up front and 4" coaxials in the rear. 6 Channel amp with a DSP and the Porsche classic head unit. Should look pretty stealthy and sound bonkers when it's done. The shop I'm working with makes everything totally reversible too.

Anyway, so I have two antennas. One in the glass, and a manual one in the fender. Neither seems to work particularly well as the FM reception blows....

What are my options?
And if we ditch the fender antennae, is there a factory plug or something to fill the hole?

Thanks!

I put a powered (boosted) antennae under my parcel shelf when I did my interior/stereo. Very good reception. Two 10" subs in a 911?? Insanity I say!

Did you have a fender antenna? If so, did you remove it and plug it somehow?

Do you have a link to the powered antenna you used?

Fender hole was welded when I did the body work. Antennae I don't remember but any quality audio store will have something suitable.
