internal antenna???

i was a previous owner of a 94 honda accord coupe. they had a small internal antenna on the rear window while the sedans and wagons had an external antenna. is it possible to rig an internal setup and shave off our antenna? it looks cleaner imo.

The factory radio uses both the external antenna and an antenna in the rear window. When I pulled my car out of storage I forgot to put the antenna mast back on and I seemed to have very poor radio reception. Try removing yours for a day and see if you can live with the results.
