Default Antenna Problems

Have a 2002 EZGO PDS and am having radio station reception problems. It came with one the black 12" whip antennas. Have a descent Kenwood radio now, 2nd radio since I have had cart. Both did not pick up stations good at all. Was thinking about buying one of these hidden antennas, link below

Can someone let me know if this one is going to do better or give me something else I can do to get stations better.

Antenna is on front plastic on cart above drivers headlight. I have the cut in headlights.

Thanks in advance, Bryan

I bought the cheapest antenna I could find and zap-strapped it to the frame under the front cowl. Seems to work fine and is hidden.

If it isn't already, I would get a marine antenna.
If you are trying to get AM stations, it's a waste of time on a cart. FM is line of sight transmission so the higher the antenna is the better the reception. Maybe relocate yours to the roof.
