I have never tested the resistance of the TV tuner diversity style antennas, but in order for it to work well, the resistance of the factory antenna would need to match that of a TV tuner style antenna.

Personally, I would just spend $20 on a couple of diversity antennas and glass mount them as usual. Seems much easier to do to me.

Just my $0.02 :-)
