aftermarket radio reception problems

I replaced my Fiber Optic stereo with a aftermarket headunit. It works fine, speakers sound great, the only problem is radio reception. I can on pick up 2 radio stations and I know there are plenty more I like. My reception is lousy, is there any help. I connected all the other wires for reception and still no better. Do I need an antenna booster? Thanks for all the help from everyone. I love this place.......................

I did the same in my SL. You need an aftermarket antenna. My MB installed one did not work. I wouldn't go cheap on it, you get what you pay for and location is also a big problem.
