I bought this one recently as a replacement antenna for my #4 Crossfire roadster . . .

I've had very similar antennas on my other two Crossfire roadsters for years and really like them (but cannot find those exact ones now).

I doubt you'll get any good radio reception with that stubby antenna from Amazon. Please come back and post to let us know how it works out . . .
Hi RedDog,
I am back to report on the stubby antenna from Amazon. It receives about 30% less signal than then stock antenna. I live in the Washignton DC metro area, so the top radio stations are received with no problems. I would not recommend the antenna beyond just being smaller and looking better. That said, the stubby antenna does leave a gap between the base and the mast, so that might be a problem with rain going into the electronics that way. I will probably look for an alternative soon enough.
Best, Sergio
