And 8" is way too short. I say 18" or 0". Either take it off (which will basically give you the same reception as having it 8"), or maybe wait and get an automatic retracting one. The 8" one just looks very odd to me.
I have an 8" antenna; the same one as Drizztbob. I like the way it looks. The rececption for AM & FM is perfect, just as good as with the stock antenna.

I want to find an antenna delete. After having my 02 Altima that has the antenna built into the rear window I would like to not have antenna, I dont listen to the radio anyway.
Maybe the 8inch antenna will be ok.

Has anybody put the 13" Billet one from Mustang-Tuning on?? Will the 99-04 models fit our new 2005 Mustangs??

PS: A friend told me that the antenna also works with your car remote (Door locks) Is this true and will cutting our stock shorter or used the shorty ones effect our remote car door distance?? Just curious?
