I bought one off ebay that has different fittings to fit any car. Mine screwed right on. It's 8" and looks like the stocker. I love it. BitViper sells some nice ones from what I hear.

You should use a window antenna and get rid of the antenna all together. I personally like the stock one because it will go down if you are listing to the CD ... I hardly ever listen to the radio anymore.

Thanks for the mention guys..

If you do cut your stocker down..make sure to cut it to a length that is a multiple of its full length...you'll get better reception..
