OR

Do these look like they are compatible? The second picture at the bottom looks like ours I think...?

I do. It works just fine. The only sharkfin I wanted I had the run around on for a month so meh. I have been just as happy with this. Way better than the 9 foot pole factory option.

I used the 2" shorty that Perrin sells, it works fine and is less eye catching than the rc car antenna.

I have it too. Don't listen to the radio much but when I have it's worked fine. It doesn't match perfectly though - it's gloss pitch black, the stock antenna is kind of a matte dark gray.
