Hey XeroTC - Yeah I went to a Honda dealership and they gave me a 2009 S2K and he said it was the same for all S2K. When I got the notifier it said you asked how the reception was... So far so good. I drive about 30 miles to work and I haven't lost any signal.

I have one from a 2010 Matrix. The Prius and Matrix use the same one. But they are pretty spendy.

just to make sure...

RDX = S2000 antenna? cause that looks kinda like mightyP's longer and more slender RDX antenna while r2dnel's s2k look shorter with a slight bulge at the tip. most likely its the angles.

They are different, but very similar. I went with the RDX because it was cheaper.

Did my own stubby antenna for free:

Reception seems to be unaffected and HD radio works fine. I use my ipod or usb all the time anyways..
