To determin teh correct length you can shorten an antenna there's a formula that has to do with std radio waves amplitudes and frequencies....and its too early for met to get into...

... I did it to my '02 two weeks after I picked it up.
You'll have to bend part of the power antenna bracket 45*, tap into two amplifier wires and extend a plastic tube for drainage.
It'll take you 30 minutes, max to do it.
You can pick one up at a junkyard, in the for sale section, eBay or even the stealership.
There are writeups out there.

So thinner would be better?...Ok....
Thin like the trimed down stocker or just generally thinner.
Withteh trimmed down stocker its almost invisable..I could see wher that would be a good thing...
Just working on my design..Thanks for your input!

BitV, I'll throw in my opinion and say that I like mine just as I received it. I find that given the fact it is a thick antenna, it sits atop and matches the base perfectly and looks like it should have come that way from the factory.
