Default stubby Antennas ?

Anyone know of a small antenna that will fit our cars?

I currently have a s2000 antenna but want something really short like 2 inches long.

Besides the fact everyone is giving me grief about using the s2000 antenna and asking me where I stole it from.

How often do you listen to analog am/fm? With a shorter antenna you will lose fm reception. What happened to your stock antenna?

nothing happened to it just want one that is short.

I honestly never listen to the radio but I don't want to just have a hole there.

Hopefully this website will help. They have several antennas to choose from.

So I took my stock antenna tonight and snipped the thin top part off so all that is left is the thick bottom part. I tested it out on several different am and fm stations and cannot notice a difference I live in downtown atlanta so maybe the radio signals are extra strong here. Anyway the antenaa has alway bothered me and now I have found a solution that make me happy

that way you can just screw in a painted bolt as an antenna
