Shark-fin antenna - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I want to replace the one on my '14 Monogram model. Are aftermarket ones as good as the OEMs? My color is Raven. Dealer says he can't find a part number for that, but I imagine a plain black one might look OK.

Yes, mine has been going strong for years, didn't notice any change in reception.

I have the first generation Beat Sonic Sharkfin in Silver Ignition (J8A) on my 2013 FRS and I've had it for about 5 years. No discoloration, but I do notice that the FM/AM Signal isn't as strong. But that's fine for me because I mostly just use pandora.

This thread has the part number for Raven. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...ighlight=shark

It also has some pictures showing the difference between OEM and the Beatsonic aftermarket. I like prefer the OEM look.
