I want to get a stubby antenna, but everything I've found online says it's good for on up to '09 tCs... Will they work on mine or do I have to find a different one? If I need a different one, anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

 

If you know anyone with a 1g tC switch antennas and it screws in to yours then the stubby you are looking at will work. I'm sure it will work though so I would not worry about it too much.

 

It should be the right one, I picked up the common s2k one that many tc1 owners use and it screwed into my tc2 perfectly.

 

I ordered one tonight, gonna do a 3" stubby. Should have it monday or tuesday, I will let you know if it fits. Had one on my 07 Tacoma, when I ordered it, it came with like 3 adapters to fit all different setups. If it works, I can get 3, 6, and 9" stubbys and I was thinking of selling them on here for around $25. Also I can get them in white and polished.

 

Thanks all. Any suggestions on brand or places to buy them?

 

The honda dealership I went to had 3 different options, all for about 25 bucks.

 

i ordered a s2k antenna mast from ebay...loos clean

just make sure u get the real OEM one...not the replica (if it matters to you)

 

Does it matter what year s2k stubby you get? I dont wanna order something and then it doesnt fit D:.....

 

It's all the same. It's just the threads that need to match. Plus every s2k body is the same. Just order it lol or go to a Honda dealer like interestingsmell said

 

Go to an Acura dealer and ask for a RDX antenna. They are like 5 or 6 inches tall, perfect fit and only cost $9 Thats what I have on mine, radio reception is great!

 

^^^Wow, thanks! I'll check it out on my way home tonight

 

After getting a quote from the Honda dealer of $47 for the S2K antenna I ordered the RDX antenna ($17) and it fits great. Ditto on the reception!

 

i would love to see pics!

 

$17??? Acura by me had it for just over $10, including tax. Anyway, I love the look, but I have no idea on the reception. I haven't listened to anything but XM in months...

 

i'm bumping this for follow up cause i'm considering buying a stubbie antenna too.

EDIT: also post pics please!

 

Still can't really speak to the reception (XM rocks!!!), but I love the look. Any shorter and I think the antenna would look weird.

 

so did you end up buying the acura antenna or where did you get that one?

 

Yep, it's the Acura RDX antenna. Ordered it from the local Honda dealership. Under $11, including tax and they got it in within about 3 days.

 

if i have time to take pictures tonight ill post them..

i have a real s2k antenna

it looks so much better than stock...when comparing it, stock looks too long and flimsy

also reception is just as good...i mean ppl with s2k have no problem with them

 

ive got one off honda crv. from what ive heard, crv, element, fit, s2k are all the same. looks great, base of it widens to match the tc base, and no issues with reception. mine looks just like mightp's (or it seems. hard to rlly tell in a pic)
