Just ordered a 2" Perrin from the Perrin site. I removed the stock antenna previously and replaced it with a black rubber washer and black bolt.

Any info to share about results without the antenna at all and with the 2 inch? Nav and FM reception are my key areas of concern. Sat radio is useless to me.

Sorry didn't use radio before and only once or twice since you might consider asking Visual Garage as they seem to be straight shooters and will give a honest answer.

I got this Antenna, and when I tried to install it today, the OEM base does not fit inside the Shark Fin. If you try pushing the sharkfin down, the OEM base pushes it up.

I think they sent me the wrong one

I think you have smaller version. Yes sent you the wrong one

After I know the Beat Sonic FRS antenna cannot fit USA Spec Subaru BRZ,
US BRZ have larger base.

I guess Modellista and Tom's one which come from
Japan might also have same problem. Beat Sonic for BRZ one only can
color match to WRB. (http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showpost.php?p=230378&postcount=181).
VG might the only option for BRZ now.
Please let me know is there having any other option.
Thanks.

I want to clarify that the VG Sharfin does fit the BRZ. My problem was the antenna cable sat between the Finn and the base and that made it thicker and thus seemed not to be working. But it DOES work, looks GREAT!

Beatsonic and the Japan part look better in my opinion.

Beatsonic has one that fits the BRZ, the problem is they don't paint match to one of the BRZ colors, its just a "similar" color to the Galaxy Blue and that IS a deal breaker.
