Default Which Shorty Antenna??
I have a 05 yellow mustang. Looking for a shorty antenna to get rid of the factory fishing pole I have on there now. I'm currently looking at American Muscle for the 8" and 14" antenna but can't really decide. Anybody have any suggestions or any pics of theirs? Or get theirs from somewhere else?

I think the 8" is too short. Thats only my opinion. I ordered the 14" antenna from American Muscle. I reeeeally like it.





You can barely see it, but any shorter would look funny IMO.

I took the factory antenna and removed the ball on the end and cut it to 14" and replaced the ball. It works great.
