Cut your stock flag pole down 60% and super glue the ball back on top. That's how I did mine. Less drag than those thick aftermarket ones.

Drag...LMFAO!

So what is a reputable place to buy this from online? I hate buying one from the first hit on a google search. I'd much prefer hearing from someone a specific vendor was good and didn't dick them over etc...

Got mine in the mail Saturday. Box said 05-06. It didn't fit. I told them what car I had when I ordered it, so maybe they sent me the wrong one????

Mine 06 was a different size thread than every other 06 I've seen including roommates 06. Just one size bigger so some are different. Had to make my own and tap it but don't remember the size.

Can we just get a link to the product that is turn key solution for 06 and above . I don't want to rethread the antenna bracket. Unless thats the only solution...

I think its 7mm. I might just re-tap mine instead of sending it back.

This is good to know.. I actually took my whole antenna off and put a acorn nut on the thread to hide it. Things is sooo tall, what happened to the motorized ones that come up when you turn the radio on?!?!

ANYONE HAVE A LINK for Ark?
