Antenna Options
Hi all,
Trying to get a poll of all the antenna options out there. I am aware of the beatsonic sharkfin antennas, perrin 2" and 4" machined antennas but not much else. At the moment, I really dislike the stock antenna but I'm not sold on a sharkfin either...something very low profile. Any ideas? Newerconvertibles (mainly BMWs) feature a sort of rectangular cover.

Cusco makes some short antennas as well.
There are a few vendors in the Classifieds section that can get them for you. |

Diggin the Agency Power antenna, thanks for the info! I agree, down with sharkfins. They look good on some vehicles but not all.

I got a billet 2" antenna off of e-Bay but I don't remember the brand. It was around $12 shipped.

You can get this one at http://takubanmotorsports.com/index....&product_id=77:
 It's about 2.5" and forms nicely with the antenna base. Yes, this is a shameless plug.

Perrin has their shorty antenna up now. They have a 2" and a 4" version. I can't decide if the 2" is too small or not. I need to see some better pics of it.

Still don't dig the shorty smooth antenna. The Agency Power has ridges that make it look like it actually belongs there in the first place.
