where can i find a shorttie antenna or SOMETHING to get rid of the lame antenna on the back of my 02 cavy? i dont like it...neither does the car cover when i use it...
tips tricks?
you get diff responses with a new forum, i saw the last
I had an extra stock one laying around. This is what I did, I measured from the bottom (where it screws on the car) up to get 10 inches and then cut it. Then put a piece of rag around the ball part that was cut in half. Then took my pliers and pulled and twisted till the little ball came off. Once you pull the ball off you can see the shape of the end on the antenna , then used my wheel grinder to shape the other part the same so the ball would fit over the top. Put a bit of glue or something I had to make sure the ball wasn't gonna come off. Used some steel wool and rubbed down the full antenna and then spray painted black and done. 10 inch stock looking antenna. Looks awsome.

I took an onstar antenna and drilled it out and re tapped it to fit my thread...did so with about 15 others I have laying around.
