Don't like. It's too long. (That's what she said.)



I'll keep my little shorty whip...

The gloss black Agency Power antenna was tempting, but I'm just gonna get the RDX antenna for ~$10 bucks and wont be nearly as pissed if some foolio jacks it.

Edit: Put it on yesterday. No discernable loss in reception. It threads on nicer than the stock one, and has a hard stop at the bottom, so it's basically impossible to overtighten. Very small gap (like .5mm) at the base but otherwise it looks perfect. Good cheap mod.

I ordered my 08' Dodge Avenger antenna yesterday and got it today ..

A whole $3.50

Thanks to my employee discount (painter at a dealer bodyshop)


only problem is it has the "swirls" on it .. at first I didnt like it but I'll see how it is in a week or two .. if not I'll just order the other one or swap it with a sebring, 300, or avenger when one comes through the shop

think I saw somewhere its not the 08 avenger but before 07 .. or the antenna for a chrysler 300 ..anyways

It does fit perfect at the base though and gets just as good signal as stock

I'll post pics tomorrow

Where can I get a really long antenna. I think my stock one is too short. I want to get reception from other planets. I think I'm going to put a big CB radio antenna from the 1970's (Smokey and the Bandit style).

threw away the package but just go to the dealer and smack the dumba$$ parts person and say "DODGE AVENGER ANTENNA, NOT A CALIBER"

I got a 08 and it has the "swirls" or looks "ribbed" .. haha .. look stupid at first but its grown on me .. it kinda gives it something extra than just a smooth antenna

but you can order the antenna from newish avenger or magnum

I believe before 07's were smooth .. but dont quote me on that .. I work at a dodge dealer and the parts lady couldnt see a difference in the years .. but idk

I ordered a 08 and got one with swirls around it .. so I dont know if its a different part number or the year or the model of the dodge (compared to a magnum, etc)

as for the s2k vs avenger .. the s2000 may be shorter but fits like junk .. I love my avenger antenna .. fits perfect and looks like its meant to be there
