Looks good did mine a year ago. Gotta love free mods.

I used superglue on the ball and when it was really hot it fell off (not by itself, i brushed up against it), never to be found again. Be careful. Looks better now.

Used JB Weld on mine and seems to be holding good.

I filed the antenna end down so it fit back in the hole of the ball very snuggly and then added some super glue. It has be on for quite a while and for plenty of miles on the interstate
