Looks great! I actually like that better than my Perrin (because it's made to fit exactly, not "close enough" like the 02-06 antenna I bought).

I agree, high quality piece, its made of solid aluminum so its definitly built to last. I have had mine for a while now and i love it! Reception is great I give it an A+. Best $25 upgrade I think this car can get.

Here you go. Its kinda like a saddle, and the antenna can rotate all the way to the front, or back to the position its in now. I wish I had gotten the ebay antenna instead though, I like that slim design. Although from a distance its probably not noticable.

I can barely even see your antenna in that pic. Im really happy I went with the ebay antenna. I have yet to see or find one I like better. would have been way beeter of putting one of those on from the start but they didnt. But its a cheap easy upgrade that Im 110% satisfied with and happy i did.

Whats the Ebay antenna look like? Can you post some pics?

I dont think the shark antenna will fit on the Canadian lancers. The base is much taller.

The eBay one wasn't around when I ordered mine

I do like the quality, though - I love billet aluminum!

do you have a link for this? and a pic.

I have a canadian rotateable base and want a better antenna.

Although I kind of like that my car looks like an RC car.
