The signal is almost non existent. Do the 5 door J's have an independent antenna amp like the GTC does? Could this be why my signal is so bad?
Most 5dr J's have just a standard FM roof mount aerial, I could be wrong but the GTC has a dummy shark fin and the FM is taken from the tailgate along with the DAB. If the FM & DAB cable then goes through a splitter and you end up with one aerial sharing both signals then this is maybe why your FM signal has been diluted.
Thanks for the help. Managed to sort it, the aerial amp wasn't get a 12v input. Spliced into one of the wires to give the amp power. Crystal clear now

I asked for help from the guy at Icebox. He tapped into the yellow wire at the bottom of the head unit adapter and bridged a connection to the yellow and green wire on the cars harness. Try installing it without doing this first, they guy said not all GTC's experience this problem.
