Default New micro antenna installed
So I bought a Bit Viper antenna and thought I'd post some pics. Pardon the slightly dirty car. I washed it yesterday but the streets are covered with salt still.

That's weird...I've never seen an antenna before! Mine likes to hide.

I bought one a few years back ... didn't fit.
Someday, I'll get with Bit and have one mad up with the proper thread for my car. (no idea why it's not the same as everyone else)

Yea, I just cut mine down to a short stub and it still gets great reception...not that I ever listen to the radio anyway .

I might take it out completely and bondo/paint over it as well - the factory antenna sure looks hideous.

My car didn't come with one, but I had one laying around from my 91, which sadly didn't quite fit right. Anyways, I cut it down to about 1/2 hight and got it installed. Looks so much nicer.

Nice. I just unscrewed mine. I get some reception, but I don't listen to the radio anyway.

Only time I listen to the radio is when I'm cleaning the car, otherwise it's waste of time, lol

How about a power antenna? Only time it sucks in in winter they can ice and get stuck.
