I got the 8" one from American Muscle. At first you're like "woah. That looks horrible." because you're used to the flag pole, and probably on some unconscious level you're like "oh no! my car's uh...*****...is smaller!"
But then you look at your car later and you really appreciate how nice hte car looks without the ridiculously long antenna.
i put my 8" on the other day and loved it right away. I don't use the radio all that much so I can't tell you what reception is like, however, the antenna looks great.
for those of you that cut the factory one.......no loss at all in reception?
I had bought a cheap e-bay one and it never fit right.... I cut my factory one yesterday.... Reception is great... I went to 16", knocked the ball tip off and crammed it back on....
