my friend gave me the stubby aftermarket antenna off of his Evo VIII and i put it on my tC.. he said that the package said itll also work for my car too.. however after putting it on i lost recption except for when im touching it... it did look very nice however it being short and silver.. anybody out there know of a good antenna thats as powerful as the stock?

The Honda s2000 antenna is a pretty good alternative.
