Default i just bought one of those ECS replacement antenna things...

because something/someone had ripped off my roof antenna.

and this one SUCKS. doesn't fit right, it says "ecs tuning" on it in white....ugh.

any better options? OR BETTER YET, is there any good way to just BLOCK the opening to the antenna hole? i hate that antenna anyways.

Default that's exactly what i'd want! i guess a homemade one could do...

if i could measure it and just sort of go to home depot and find some random piece of metal to cap it with....i dunno.

i was hoping someone DID do this over the years.....but so far i've found nothing.

Default Search "Antenna Delete" there is a post with everything you need.

I did this about 3 years ago. I like it.

Default Yes but that is because I put on Clear Rustoleum (How is it rusting with that?).

I am going to take it off and respray it with either Silver or Chrome.
