Has anyone had any problems with these?http://store.yahoo.com/autoaccesscon...opstststc.html

I just ordered the 21 incher. Seems the one-fiddy is getting a little too big for its stall and the overhead door is paying the price with the stock antenna...FLING.

 

I too need to order one of these, one of these days its just going to break off... If not those, any suggestions from anyone..

 

i know what you mean plus that sound after a hard day is very aggrvating

 

What's even worse is when my significant other said, "I just noticed that a section of paint is missing at the bottom of the garage door." Uh, mmm, yeah, that would be my antenna. "Well fix it you lazy #$&^%#!" Hence, the post.

 

Auto zone, like 5 or 6 bucks:

I just cut mine down. Pulled the ball end off the top of the cut piece and glued it onto the cut end. Its been on there for a year with no rust or other problems.

 

How is the reception?

 

I bought a pretty cool 6" black powder coated one from eBay a long time ago and have had it on 2 different trucks. It works perfectly and looks pretty sweet too. It's been so long since I bought it that I don't know which seller I got it from, but I'm sure you could still probably find one. I think he had a bunch of different colors and sizes too.

 

Ditto. Absolutely NO change in reception and you'd NEVER know I did it... my garage door sure does though.

 

I replaced my ariel with an 18". The reception for the normal stations remain the same. With the weaker stations I noticed in certain geographical areas the reception was lost approx 10-20%. But no matter, my garage door appreciates the change.

 

Here is what I got:

 

15" black powdercoated, bought it on ebay a few years ago:
