What antenna do you have on your Tacoma?

I have the 13" antenna x euro style.. Not a fan of a bendable antenna though.. Anyone know of a non bendable antenna like the antenna x euro?

 

I just installed the Hidden Antenna Kit from AntennaX. This kit requires a 12 volt connection so I connected it to the power wire (one of the red wires) behind the stereo. And so far, it works great. It didn't come with the little thing to plug the hole where the stock antenna goes. There's a picture this plug on their website so I assumed it was included. I emailed them and they apparently no longer include that plug. I just went to the hardware store and bought a galvanized bolt like this to fill that hole.

 

A short Carbon Fiber one. I rarely listen to the radio, but when I do, seems to work just fine.

 

One of the first things I replaced was the antenna. I bought a 9" and 12" from ebay. Both were on and worked great. I have the JBL entune radio with entune, apps, etc on and I everything works well. I have seen no degredation in signal strength on regular or HD radio. Here is the link to the 12" which I left on since my daughter wanted teh 9".

All Sales 6212K Stubbie Black Powder Coated 12" Antenna

No additional connections needed for this one either.

 

I have stock but I cut it down to about 24". Reception is just as good and I don't whack the parking garage ceiling anymore.

 

whacking the parking garage ceilings is what the stock one is for, warning signs for lifted oweners

 

I Agree!

 

so what you're saying is when I finally do get my lift, I should just go ahead and order a new antenna with it?

 

Do you guys sell just the adapter separate from the cb antenna?

 

I bought a CravenSpeed. Ended up just chopping the stock one to 13" with a dremel and ~15 seconds of my time.

Anyone want to buy a CravenSpeed Stubby antenna?

 

13" antenna x...

 

Stock but will probably get a shorter one. When I go to the mall covered parking it scrapes the roof!

 

I like to use mine as a clearance indicator

Unfortunately some low hanging trees on a trail got to it... and the stock one is bent. My buddy's antenna got bent on that same trip and his antenna actually snapped when he tried to bend it back

I actually use my radio so I don't want to lose any reception with an aftermarket....

 

I put a Metra hidden antenna in, got tired of hitting it on trees offroad

Has good in town reception, don't really notice a difference. Has a booster built in too so hope next time I go out of town it will work better. Mounts nicely behind the deck, up in the plastic between the defrost vents and dashboard.

Bought on Amazon for $12

 

sorry we dont

 

Antenna X 14 in.

easy install looks great and it no longer catches on everything and reception is the same as stock. No complaints.

 

Ok, thanks.

 

thanks for the positive review!!

 

anyone know of a easy way to blank the entire antenna off? i hate those things and unscrewed mine almost right out of the gate. now i'd like to get rid of the black nub.

 

Just ordered a 14 inch from AntennaX. I will let you all know about the reception out here in the middle of No Where New Mexico.
