ok, I have a 98 Audi A4 that I am installing a aftermarket headunit into. and I used a Metra antenna adapter for the Antenna to the headunit, but I am not receiving any AM stations except one or two. I also tried using Metras Amplified antenna adapter for the Audi. and it produced the same results. Great FM and no AM.

I couple sources said that I still need to power up the cars power antenna lead. Is this true even though the car does not have a powered antenna?

Ditto, The Audi has its antenna in the rear windscreen(looks like demister strips) and an active antenna booster in the c pillar from memory and requires powering up to pass any AM signal. Wire up the auto antenna circuit and AM will appear!
