Saturn Sky antenna?

Is the thread patter for a Saturn Sky/Pontiac Solstice the same as that of a '07 + up Cobalt? I'm not asking for me, as I already have an ARK shorty antenna on mine........rather i'm asking for a friend who dosen't want a super short anteanna that will get lackluster radio signal quality. I found a website that has a bunch of shorty antennas in all shapes and sizes for a Saturn Sky/Solstice........just wondering if they have the same mm/thread pattern as our Cobalts. Thanks!

anyone??

I'm not sure about the thread pattern being the same...but.

Perfect radio signal and I think its a 13" its about as high as the roof of the car.

So cheap and so many options. Its for my girlfriend, who wants to keep her radio reception.......so I was thinking the B-Black adjustable would be perfect.

And at $13 shipped....****, i'll buy it FOR her as a present, lol.

Yeah. Well I wouldn't trade my ARK for any of them........but I don't use my radio, where the person i'm researching this form (my girlfriend, Jmarie619) does. I want her to get a shorty antenna, but she refuses to get the ARK, so I figured if I found one that was adjustable, i'd order it for her.

I get decent radio reception with the ARK....but if you want crystal clear reception like stock, the ARK isn't for you.

Part number 25805645

I just ordered this for my Cobalt. I don't listen to the radio much, but I'd like to have it available since I don't have my XM service any more. There are times you need to get news or traffic info and good reception is necessary.

I didn't find any firm info, but I think I'm going to have to tap new threads on this to get it to work on my '08 Cobalt. Either way, I'm going to be able to get a shorter antenna with full reception for about $30.

I actually just responded to Maven via PM. He doesn't know off the top of his head, but he has Solstices, Canyons and full size trucks on hand at the dealership, so he's gonna see if any of those have antennas that are interchangeable with his Cobalt. So we'll know more by tomorrow.
