I think I am gonna wait a little while for this mod. Gotta trickle them out to make it interesting. Still enjoying the LED license frame and about to mount Solar Powered Green LEDs in the dash so that i can actually see in all the nooks and crannies.

And like 'Wdhitch' said: can't beat the price. Mopar Suggested List Price is ONLY $5.50 (PN 5064710AA), but of course I paid less...you know, since I WORK THERE!

Reception so far is just fine, but then I don't listen to the radio much...mostly CD's. But my 'oldie' station comes in JUST FINE!



OK Panda you win

I got mine today and it does work better than the stubby ! The stubby was fine around town, but once I got out of town it started to fade fast

Had to pay "retail" (some of us are NOT in the "business") so instead of $3.63 it was $5 + tax Still a good deal and it DOES work better! Thanks Wdhitch

PS
Panda, now we're the same size (Gotta keep up the "The Panda's)"

Keeping up w/ Panda and hitch... thanks for the info guys.

Called ahead to my local Dodge dealer (thanks for the PN, BP), none were in stock, so they special ordered overnight for tomorrow.

$5.50+tax=$5.96. I ordered two... will make a friend at the next M&G

Cheers,
Timo

I oppose the "everyone's doing it" thing. So I dunno, I might go ahead and do it. I was looking at getting an antenna ball or something for my stock antenna. I dont know how well one would fit on this Chrysler stubby.

Oh yeah by the way Panda... Jay and John T. have been trying to get me to lie to you about my MPGs to get you to go crazy. I got 39.7 MPGs on the Studebaker trip running 70+mph chasing Walter and Jetfuel. That's all 465 and 31, so my city driving MPGs are definetly lower. Im sure we are getting about the same. Maybe its all that window tint weighing you down, JK.
