Default 2010 shorty antennas?

so one of the first things I did on my 05 was take off the 18-foot tall antenna and put on a shorty. The one on my 10 is a little better, but it's still ugly. there are reams of shorty antennas for up to 09's but none for the 10. did the antenna change that much that one of the ones for 09 down won't fit?

NVM i knew i saw one somewhere:

Ordered mine for my 2010 and it shipped 2 days ago, expecting delivery any day. Should be about half the size of what's there.

A few of us have just cut down the stock ant at the point it goes from wide to thin looks good doesn't seem to affect reception and the best part? It's free

By the way, mine was the one from BBR, reception not affected at all. 30 sec install, unscrew old, screw in new, no tools necessary.
