RE: Shorty antenna install question...
Hey, don't buy one-make one. Take yours off. Put the end you will not keep in a vise. Remove the ball. (I used the slot in a pry bar and a hammer. It was soooo easy) Hack saw off the amount you want to shorten. File the end of the new length slightly to fit the old ball. Trial fit until satisified. Put a drop of super glue on the end and tap the ball on the antenna with a hammer. P
