Just about every online dealer who sells MINI parts/accessories will offer a stubby antenna. Google "stubby antenna" and you'll have all sorts of choices. Also, see eBay for several different offerings. Personally, I just removed my stick antenna entirely and prefer the "miniature shark fin" appearance more than the OEM or stubby antenna. I primarily listen to Sirius and removing the stick has no effect whatsoever since the SAT antenna is in the base not the stick. Also FM stations come in just as well. I only listen to one AM station for local news and it comes in OK most of the time, although other AM stations are minimal.
