the ebay antennas are so cheap though. I cut my stock one at first but didn't cut it as much as I should have and the ball was kind of a PITA to put on so I just went and bought one from ebay for like $12.

I'd go with the BitViper but there are so many f-bodys in my area (not on LS1tech though) and I'm worried that it wouldn't last a week before it got stolen off my car.
I think I'm going to go with the cheapo one off of eBay.
Thanks Guys.

I just got one of the generic ones off of eBay too for like $12 shipped. I went with the 18" because the 12" just looked too short IMO. I can't tell ANY difference in reception between the stock and 18" antenna...

I got it in the mail and on the car yesterday (8" off eBay). Cost me $12 shipped. The reception is good (a little static on the stations from far away). That was one of the cheapest mods that make the car look a lot younger, those big antennas are a thing of the past now.

Sounds like the 18"... 4 inches taller than mine now would still be shy of the top. JMO.
I got the 12$ one off eBay too.
Shorty Antenna the easy ans cheap way.
Take antenna cut down to desited length. go to Ace hardware and get a rubber cap to cover the cut end.
Finished
Cost $.05
Looks as good as the expensive ones.
