after market antenna

I am looking for a shorter radio antenna for my 02 F150. Does anybody know of any web sites or catalogs where I might find one. I have not had any luck with my searches so far.

yup, what Antz said. I got a 12" and noticed that the reception is not like it was stock. Its common sense though. shorter antenna = less reception.

14" Universal Antenna off of ebay. Paid less than 10 bucks delivered for it and it fits and works perfect. No reception issues of any kind.

Have you had any loss of reception with that Lee? Also, I went to the link and it said that antenna was for mustangs. Did you have to use an adapter for installation?
