I decided that buying a windshield with an antenna was way too expensive. So, after some on-the-fly engineering (and a few beers) I found that attaching a THIN wire to the end of the antenna connector (just behind the battery) would work. So I cut a 6 ft. piece of alarm wire (4 conductor) and attached one wire to the end of the connector and wrapping the remainder around the windshield (up the passenger side and over the top). The reception was great. My plan was to pull the rubber outer trim from the windshield and after stripping the white outer shell and discarding the other three wires then placing the thin wire into the trim channel and replacing the trim.

Notes on creating the wire: Carefully cut through the outer white shell in 1 1/2 inch sections and carefully strip them off the cable. Take care here as the stripper can easily strip the insulation off the individual wires. After you've gotten the individual wire you need, solder one end to the wire that comes off the antenna connector at the base of the windshield and encapsulate the connection with shrink wrap. Replace the small cover and install the remainder of the wire in the windshield channel.

The attached pictures should suffice and I'll answer any questions if needed.
