Radio amplifiers

My 2001 Jaipur red 1.4 TDi had factory concert radio cd installed by Timmus among other jobs at the time. All bands work as does cd but reception isn’t the best on FM . I have since found the attached in the photo and they have orange paint overspray on the back.
How can I check if my car has these(where should they be), and if not are they an easy DIY install or do I need another trip to see Tom
I suspect they may have been removed when aftermarket unit was installed
Any help appreciated
Thanks
Brendan

They are located on the drivers side of the tailgate under the trim going from top to bottom of the glass
There will be one on a std aerial setup or four on the diversity setup
If you look near the battery if you have an electronics box with wires coming in and out then your car as diversity no unit means a single aerial amplifier
Not the part number as you can’t mix and match diversity with none diversity

Upper left and right side on pic you will spot them probably...
Edit: but FM is written on larger ones below too (at least that has sticker upside), so might be these instead.
