Looking to replace my factory original (long) antenna with a shorter one for my 2008 Clubman.

Not sure if it matters that I have Bluetooth; any suggestions on a reputable on-line site to purchase it?

Thanks in advance!

 

Helix, Alta, OEM, just about everybody has them...

 

Thanks!

 

I have used the alta and have been happy with it.

 

Thanks rasputinj; so far Alta is seems to be the best options.

 

I run the MINI Sport antenna. With no loss of radio reception.

$21.43

 

Got one from Pep Boys ~ $12. Works great the hole for the stud in the mini is 1X6mm. May be my imagination but the FM radio reception seems better than stock!

 

Bluetooth makes not difference.

I got the OutMotoring version and I rather like the more angular shape to it. Most of the shorty antennas are more rounded:

walk0080 - I like that one; many thanks!!

 

If anyone has sources other than web or the dealer, I'd appreciate it. Unsuccessful so far at local parts houses (headed to PepBoys after work), and the MINI Sport antenna is up to $35; the dealer says $40+ for the OE long one.

 

I bought this one when my stocker get broke.

hoonu - Hope you can find one you like.

 

Buy Way's. It has a cool looking logo (Way's... but still nice).

 

Obviously we recommend our WMW antenna, but if you don't want ours go with another aluminum antenna. The OEM Sport antenna which we also sell, but don't recommend costs more, and we've already seen several cracked and broken.

 

Thanks, all!
