Default best antenna????...

im looking at the s2k antenna right now...which kind of has been the default of aftermarket antennas for the Z...but i was wondering if anybody knows or owns other types of stubby antennas cuz ive seen really stubby ones that are even smaller than the s2k one that would look nice on the z...just dont know about its efficiency and fit...if you got pics also please post them...

first of all, search, this has been covered quite a few times...

second, yea I really like the S2000 antenna and I've noticed that alot of people use the acura MDX ( i think ) antenna...without losing reception...but you have to watch that having a stubby antenna...

I would search stubby antenna or best antenna for the best results...

the pics in my album don't really show it well, bad cell phone pics. PM me your email address, I'll take a couple of new pictures in high res / clear shot to show you how flush the RDX antenna fits. looks like it was made for the car, and the reception is unchanged.

I think I used an 08 avenger antenna. I got the smooth one, not the one with the wire wrapped around it.
