Is it worth to get the 14in antenna or the 8in? Is there a loss in reception, I would like to get the 8 but I hope it doesn't look silly.

ive got the 8" and reception is just as good, and it doesnt look like a freakin mast on a sail boat!

 

I have the 14" and the reception is the same

Yea the 8 looks good, plust I am getting my car black as well. Just purchasing parts while it is getting built. Any chance on where the best place to purchase it?

Thanks!

I think my 8" is about the same as well. I don't use the radio a whole lot, but when i do it's pretty typical. I've had cars with it built into the rear window, that doesn't stand up at all, i'm not sure if the logic is surface area of exposed antenna but in my opinion, the stock are that tall because they need to cater to people that live in rural areas.

 

i used americanmuscle.com and i got it a day early, like 2 days no big deal, its awesome and helps the look alot. go for it!

 

I got the 8". I think it looks great and no loss in reception.

 

No issues with the 14"

 

I have the 14" from americanmuscle with no reception issues and I DO use the radio frequently on long trips. The top of the 14"er is at or just below the roofline. I've HEARD some with the 8" report degraded reception.
