Sweet! Just bought one, nice heads up! So does the stock one just unscrew?

 

I bought a shorty antenna from them and it was the worst $20 I ever spent. Lost a good majority of my FM reception and that's here in So Cal.

Gave it to a buddy of mine and then painted my stock antenna black. Got all of my reception back and solved my desire for a black antenna.

 

Hmmm interesting. Can't speak for So Cal but I'm in Indiana and didn't have any problems at all with reception. I guess it may vary form state to state

 

Yup it unscrews. May need a adjustable wrench though.

 

I had the same bad results.

 

I plasti dipped mine. Terrible idea. It started peeling in no time and it's a b)$&@ to peel the rest off

 

I read through about 6 of the 20 pages of reviews on Amazon. It was about 50/50......the biggest issue seems to be the shortness of the antenna, not low quality manufacturing. And the reality is I don't use AM/FM a whole lot. I usually have the iPod or the Sirius going, so even though I may lose some reception I think the badass look more than makes up for it!! Just my opinion.....

 

I like the long antenna only cuz I know that'll hit under parking garages then I know I won't fit

Good idea, but if you go Offroad hitting every other branch that alone will have you buying a shorty.

Heat shrink tubing works great.
