In my Model S all AM/FM broadcast reception antennas are hidden in the
driver-side mirror housing.
I suggest you simply make a physically small antenna that can fit under
some plastic part of your car. Wayne has a Prius so it is mostly
plastic bodywork providing lots of opportunities.
Then insert the small antenna into a very low loss, extremely high-k
dielectric to make the physically small antenna electrically resonant at
the desired frequency. If it works, patent the dielectric material!
You can then encase a typical satellite TV dish in the same dielectric
and have a very directional HF beam and get around all the HOA problems
for those who operate radio while NOT in their car :-)
Air as a dielectric is so 20th century...
