Central Locking areial ?

Have seen a few posts about improving the distance that the key fob works.
Where is this 'arial'?
What have people extended it with?

First
You find the aerial behind the dash, sometimes dangling outside, but always taped to metal. The modifiaction is quite easy - isolate the end of the aerial improves the receiption.
Second
BUT, there is a reason the aerial is grounded to reduce distance. LR did not apply for a dedicated frequency, so almost anybody can jam your central locking frequency. Never forget: cars have owner, Landrover have field service personnel.
