short antenna

Where can I buy one and what all is involved with the install? How does the stock antenna come off.

Sorry for the dumb question, just don't want to jack anything up!

www.americanmuscle.com

available in 8" or 14" lengths.

installation instructions:
1. unscrew stock antenna
2. screw on new antenna

that should just about cover it.

RE: short antenna

Thanks, that seems easy enough. Any reception difference between the 8 and 14?

Easy install. I have the 14" and no problems. Some say the 8" reception is degraded, others don't.

You can buy from AmericanMuscle and others or cut yours yourself.

So easy a cave man can do it! I have the 8" and have had no problems, although i rarely listen to the radio( rather listen to the exhaust soundtrack)

RE: short antenna

I have the 8" from American Muscle. I never noticed a degrade in reception with it, but I signed up for Sirius radio about a week after installing it.

Man I love the Jason Ellis show on Faction.
