Talking Alternativeradio antenna
I got this antenne from the guys at RSpeed in Marietta, GA. I think it looks very nice... I think the reception is not much worse than the stock antenna...

Those antennas look great! My friend bought one similar to that for his GTI but in a couple weeks it started to pit and corrode, so keep your eye on it. Looks awesome though!

Thanks, I'll keep my eye on it... I've had it now for a couple of weeks, it looks OK so far.... maybe it depends which area of the country you live in? No salt or anything like that around here..

Nice! It matches your silver Evo well. It might not match as well for other colors tho.

I like the S2000 Antenna better. It's a direct replacement part.

I have one on order from vivid racing that is about 4" tall. It's made by perrin and looks very similar to the IS300 antenna. Does anyone Know how reception is with that antenna?

Catch me up here....the Honda S2000 factory antenna shaft screws right into the EVO base and works just fine with no reception loss?? And you can order this from Honda??

Any on-line sources for that???

easist way is to just go to a honda dealer and ask for thr s2k's antenna, prob will cost around $20 depend on the dealer, but you don't have to pay shipping.
