I never liked the stock P5 Antenna, saw this on ebay wondering if anyone here has one?

got one too. AM reception is a little weaker I noticed, but don't listen to AM anyway...but if you do...

Also, the antenna is really short. I mean REALLY short. It was a lot shorter than I had expected. I like it now, but it took me a week or so to warm up to it.

I'd measure something and stick it on the antenna just so you know what you're buying first. Just in case...better safe than sorry, right?

togan get some locktight i got the strongest one for mine lol i cant get it off lol soo i dont have to worry

I've never had mine stolen, although I've heard some people have. I read that if you put a little dab of epoxy or superglue or something on the thread and screw it in, you'll be fine. The small antenna that I bought is pretty strong, and it's been through car washes and everything. No problem. (But I can unscrew mine if I need to, just haven't really had a good reason to yet...)

You can unscrew yours even after putting epoxy on?

 

[whitemp5seattle]

no I read that if you put epoxy on it it'll make it theft-proof. I didn't put any epoxy on mine. I probably should though...it'd suck to walk out one morning to find your antenna's been jacked...

i got one too on my yellow p5.. i think it makes the car look much "sleeker". looking at the side of the car, its 100 times better with the shorty antenna vs the long ass whip coming out the back. i didnt put any locktite on it either because i didnt know if i would ever need to take it off, so im scared sometimes when i park my car that the antenna will be stolen.
