Wi-Ex In-Car Signal Booster (Refurbished) for $99.99
The zBoost YX230 car cell phone booster uses two antennas and a small amplifier to create a “cell zone” inside your car.
The external antenna grabs a nearby cellular signal, and transmits it to the amplifier. The amplifier sends a beefed-up signal to the second antenna which repeats the signal inside your car for dramatically improved reception.
Extends cell phone range (up to 10 times the signal strength), improving the signal strength for both voice and data
Battery life is improved because the phone doesn’t work as hard to find a good signal
Reviews on the parent site (Amazon) imply you have to make sure you have to make sure you install this carefully following the instructions to get good results. I'd also add make sure your cell provider uses the bands it covers (800 and 1900).
@hackman2007: Not difficult at all. You do need to follow the directions on how far the antenna needs to be from your phone. Other than that its just hiding the wires and the hardest part is figuring out how to get the external antenna to the roof of your vehicle without making it look tacky.

I have one in my truck and it does help improve signal strength.
