Alright here is the deal I installed a remote keyless entry and starter system on my G/F's Ford Contour. It works great with one exception the reange on the antenna sucks ass. I believe it is the bulldog brand and antenna that is included is a little yellow wire about 18" long coming out of the computer unit. This i ran up the door jamb under the rubber trim. The range was a whopping 5'. Then i proceded to solder and additional 6 feet of thicker gauge wire on to the existing antenna and run the wire all the way up the window column thing and half way across the windshield. It is tucked up a little under the ceiling fabric. but the range still sucks it dosent work for more than 20 feet away. Any tips on how to "properly" extend an antenna. or suggestions on what the hell could be the problem. The unit i put on my car (grand am... Hell yeah!!!) has a seperate anteanna kinda box unit that is remotely stationed and works great through concrete walls. please help!!!!!
