Shoty Antena

I want to replace my stock, foolishly long antena with a short one...but a short one that will still serve it's purpose.

Where can I find this???

Or you can gat a factory replacement and cut it down to the size you want then cut the antenna flush at the base, drill out the remaining antenna from the base and soldering in the antenna to the height you want it and still retain the original ball instead of a rubber boot.
