need help with XM radio

alright so here's the deal my dad just bought me a little XM express radio thing and if anyone has it or knows about it, you'll know what i'm talkin about. Well the only way to get good reception you have to have this big thing on your antena and it has to be outside your car to work, we tried it in the car but it didn't come in as good, well this thing looks just gay on the antenna and i was wondering if anyone knew of an idea where else to put it where it's not noticeable.

thanks!

they sell low pros you can put on any xm radio. Mine is no bigger than a quarter. Looks like OEM.
