I put one of the S2000 stubby antennas on my Z and I like the way it looks but the reception is really bad! Has anyone tried one of the hidden antennas there are on the market. Like the one on the link I attached below? If so, how did it work? I'm thinking about keeping the short antenna, but just for looks, it will not even be connected. I plan on using a hidden one. Any feed back would be helpful.

I dont think anyone has had any problems with the S2000?? And I don't believe that accessory will work because of the depth of the motor.

Where did you buy your antenna?

 

Sorry if this sounds stupid, but what do you mean "the depth of the motor"?
I bought the antenna from Ebay. Are they different any where else? It just gets really bad reception.

 

Unless you buy a fake S2k antena, the REAL s2k antena works fine ! I had it for about 4 months now and reception is perfect!

 

mine works incredibly well....can't tell a difference between it and OE...but we have zero good radio stations...so I rarely use it.

 

# 1 where are you guys buying the antenna's at? Get off your asses and just go to our local honda dealer and pick up a REAL one. .instead of that cheap Ebay crap. .its like 20 bucks. .and u get it ASAP. .instead of waiting for some moron to send his. .i got mine at honda and it works amazingly well. .but these days who listens to the radio anyway? IPOD~XM~SERIUS~HD RADIO~. .ya KNow??

 

Hmm would be interesting to see the antenna in the fender and the hole smoothed and filled.

 

Bump to see if anyone has done this mod.

 

my s2000 antena works perfect for me and i got it from courtesynissan.com

 

sorry for being such a noob on these S2000 antenas but Ive seen a picture before of the antena you buy and does it just bolt onto the existing bolt that holds the OEM antena?

 

yes. screw off your old antenna, screw on the S2K antenna. done.

 

thank you I though it was just that simple, thought Id clear that up

 

the hidden antennas suck...sh!tty staticky and can hardly hear the radio when i do listen to it...i had the s2000 but shaved it now and went with the hidden one. good thing i listen to my ipod all the time.

 

LOL, finally someone answered and didn't get sidetracked.
