I would be really happy if I could find a hollow sharks-fin style that did FM (a little) and allowed me to sink the GPS and XM magnetic blobs inside
Anyone done this ?

Long antennas rule.
Now that I have the JCW spoiler. I have a Craven Speed Antenna from the Dragon with about 1/2" cut off so the spoiler doesn't rub on it.

i usually like in-glass antennas. i think they put a long antenna on the car on purpose. it does make it look like a rc toy and i love it!

The S2000 antenna's are my choice. Just right size, looks OEM and only costs about $15 off peeps here on NAM.

Just got back from X-Mas in Seattle and what was waiting on my doorstep? A custom engraved Stubby from Kellen and the folks at Craven Speed
It looks sweet and I should have pics posted tomorrow

This doesn't provide any reception for the radio though, right?

Yep, only GPS signals. The radio reception is handled by the antenna in the rear quarter window. Not sure which side though.

Here is a Ebay auction for a fin not sure how good it would be.
Thanks for the pictures I like the look. I don't use Am/FM since I have XM radio so I may switch out the antenna.

I love that so much!
I forget what it was. .. from a Saturn or something. Did it need an adapter?

I think the best antenna is the alta one. I get great reception!

S2000 antenna. Just drive up to your local Honda dealer and purchase. If you want it any shorter, just shave the darn thing.
