Default Replacement v short aerial?

Im looking to get a very short, short as possible really, aerial for the C70. The black round one, not the sharkfin.

Dont really mind if it sucks as im not sure if i have ever used the radio in the car.

Cheap would be nice though, and not ugly.

I put one of these

Works well and screws in to the existing fitting.

Cheers

I bought one of these but never fitted it as I couldn't get the old one off!

Interested in your experience with the short aerial. I think the original spoils the line of the car.

I've got the shark fin SatNav receiver - I wonder if it's possible to fit a radio aerial inside there, it would look a lot cleaner.
