I'm guessing you're talking about the Fuba-style antennas, that all VWs have these days. They come standard on the Viggen, which is probably what you've seen them on. I recently installed one on my 1997 900. It wasn't all that hard. You have to pull down the back of the headliner and drill a large hole in the roof, then run the wire down the left C-pillar. The good ones are all amplified, but you can power them off of one of the existing antenna's wires. Lastly, you'll need the antenna hole plug from a Viggen. They're around $17.00 from the dealer. I bought my antenna for $70.00 or so from Antenna World. It's a Fuba made under license by Olympus in Japan. Don't get the Fuba antennas you see on E-Bay. They're either OEM VW models that require a square hole, or some cheap Taiwanese knock-off that usually isn't amplified.
