Remove the factory antenna from the car. Next using a pair of pliers, remove the ball at the end of the antenna. The best way is to slide the pliers on the antenna and hit the ball. Be careful because the ball will fly off. Have someone catch it or do it into a blanket so that you don't lose the ball. Now cut the antenna down to size. I recommend having it match the roof line. One the antenna is cut, grind the end of it allow the ball to fit back on. Use some crazy glue to hold the ball on place. Now using black paint, repaint the antenna and you are done.

Tools Needed:

Cut off wheel/saw
Glue
Paint

Time: 10 min

I will try and post some pics soon.

There is no loss in radio clarity or signal!!

 

Hahaha, sweet man, good solution, can't wait for the pics.

 

Found mine on a trade in at work!

 

That's certainly an interesting idea.... but why not just shell out $20 for a Shorty antenna?

 

I paid $5 for mine at autozone and it is barely noticable.

 

go to Autozone, ur antenna will screw out and u can buy one for $5.00 and looks good....

 

I got the Walmart special here

 

I got my Shorty for 5 bucks a Advanced Auto parts, but it's very easy moved by the wind, it looks like im going 80 when it's parked. its funny

 

good how to! did mine today. looks great but i didnt want to skrew mine up if i didnt like it so i used my friends antenna from his truck cuz he doesnt have a radio anyways.
