View Full Version : Product review--Aluminum Stubby on eBay
Somnambulated 01-28-2005, 08:00 AM Got one. Looks great, radio reception sounds TERRIBLE now.
Just a heads-up for anyone who listens to the radio/doesn't know that eBay is a great way to waste cash. Just what I get for being cheap. :eyebrow:
I'm going to buy a Honda s2000 antenna right after I pay rent.
Nuuu!
Stop taking our antennas :(
Taylor 01-28-2005, 08:21 AM which one is it?
I just got one for 20 bucks, but I rarely listen to the radio anyway...I normally listen to my cds all the time.
Somnambulated 01-28-2005, 11:38 AM It shouldn't be a problem if you rarely listen to your radio. It's this one:

I stuck my stock antenna back on tonight. Tomorrow after my oil change, maybe I'll stop by the Honda dealership.

It makes the car look a lot better, and the reception is acceptable if you are in the city oherwise no reception. Doesn't matter to me though because i dont listen to the radio.
iowagary 01-28-2005, 09:57 PM For all these people who don't listen to the radio, why doesn't someone just make an antenna cap - you'd screw off the antenna and screw it on instead and it would just be a little bump and nothing else - sort of like a mini-s2000? Someone could probably make one out of the existing antenna... I like the way the tC antenna looks frankly, but I'm just saying...

Somnambulated 01-29-2005, 12:18 AM Just put the s2000 antenna on tonight. Reception is better than stock. Not kiddin.
Definately worth the 20 bucks!
Kaeon 01-29-2005, 12:35 AM Somnambulated, Would you like me to move this to the "Retail, Shop & Dealer Experiences" forum for you? :)
Somnambulated 01-29-2005, 12:43 AM Cool. Didn't see it, but I'll have to look for the forum.
SirWompus 01-29-2005, 01:02 AM I hear the stock one works pretty good

I bought the same one. I also think it looks good but the reception trade-off is just unacceptable. I took some pictures if anyone is interested.

Taylor 01-30-2005, 03:12 AM Hmmm...I did check out my radio the other day, and I didn't hear any problems with it. (btw, I have the exact same one)
I do have to say though that Vegas is one of those cities that has EVERYTHING, so trips outside of Vegas are so rare that I wouldn't know about it after I left the city yet. And I use cds on road trips.
If it gets to the point where I get fed up with it, I'll probably put my stock antena back on.
Audicted 01-30-2005, 03:48 AM I made sure I got the OEM S2000 stubby and it looks great!receptions just about the same , too
