If you already have a reliable walkie-talkie, that's great! Just use your existing one; it will cost nothing, and the value for money is essentially infinite.
If the walkie-talkie signal is weak but still functional, you can first try to improve it by purchasing a walkie-talkie suction cup antenna and attaching it to the roof of your car. Then connect the other end to the walkie-talkie. This is a low-power vehicle radio that offers excellent value for money, costing in the tens or hundreds of yuan. If you find using the walkie-talkie inconvenient, you can also add a walkie-talkie hand microphone. You can start using it like this, and if you still find it too cumbersome, consider upgrading to a more advanced vehicle radio.
If you're unsure whether to buy a radio, which one to buy, or if you think you'll need to replace your radio soon, you can first purchase the car antenna. Ultimately, you will need to buy one. Car antenna + suction cup (with cable and M male connector) + M female to SMA female adapter, use this kit for your radio initially. When you change your radio, you only need to swap out the connectors, and the antenna will be ready to use.
Regardless of the chosen solution, the cable length must be calculated correctly; it should not be too short. The cable diameter can also be considered to be no more than -3, which can be directly inserted into the gap, preventing drilling.
