    some of this, a little of that
    It's not the size of the w̶a̶n̶d̶ antenna, but the magic in it.

    I believe I bought the same one and install is easy. They give you enough fittings to chose from so it will work with nearly any vehicle.

    And you have had good luck with it as well, any reception issues?

    Reception is pretty solid. Sometimes maybe not quite as good as the stock antenna, but worth it to me since it won't get tangled on branches when I'm off-road.

    Yup looks like it is but I don't buy off Amazon. And now add shipping to it if you don't have Prime or whatever they call it. And this guy is a great seller, and has sold over 300 of them.

    Yeah I found mine cheaper on eBay too. You just have to be willing to scan through the pages a bit.
