Weak FM signal after installation of multimedia

... i have a problem with FM signal in car...

... not so long ago I install Panasonic CQ-vw100n multimedia sistem in my car and from that moment the FM signal in car became weak...

...I know that is because the original Becker Audio sistem with CD uses 2 antennas, and now the new sistem uses just one...

... in the workshop they put me in some antenna amplifier, it's a bit better, but that is just not as nearly god as before...

... I'm interested is there any solution to this situation, some adapter, so I can use both antennas to get FM signal again with my new sistem ? ...

... it's ok, but I allredy searched there and found nothing for 2001 c-class, there is some audio jack but only for audio 10 that is 2004+...

... i think this is that other wire that has nowhere to go in new multimedia system...

Tap the Cigarette lighter and run the wire to Power the OEM antenna "A5 Black"! if you look at the PDF file you will see wire "A5 automatic antenna" you need to add some sort of POWER to it and your FM service will be like stock. you still have to plug in the FM jack into the radio aswell!
