Aftermarket JVC stereo question

I am in the process of upgrading the stereo in my 2003 XJ8. I have found a JVC single DIN that I like, but am concerned about the antenna situation.
Does anyone know if the antenna on my car is the standard Motorola tip? What about the power antenna function?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

You can buy adapters on Amazon if needed. The JVC has an antenna activation (usually a blue wire or blue/white wire), I'm sure you can download a pdf of the wiring schematic for it on JVC. I personally don't like the power antenna and dismantled it and put in a hidden unit, I think I provided you with a link to that elsewhere?
