It's about 4-5 inches long (no it's not a thingy lol!) There isn't anything wrong with it, as it does work, I think it's my area, and also what I've got attached to it, my amp doesn't help I know that much, neither does my iPod.

They have a built in amp, I connected that to the electrical aerial feed on the head unit, I was getting a better signal than the roof aerial.
