does the perrin shorty antenna fit snug onto a lancer es? the reason i ask is b/c i just bought one and theres like a 1/4th or 1/2 inch gap.

 

That sucks, I got the s2000 one, and it's a perfect fit.

 

funny . . . i had a perrin and it fit perfect and now ive got an S2000 and theres an 1/8th inch gap. Either way its simple to fix. If you cant adjust the depth of the screw (which you can on some) then simply get a black rubber 0-ring, the type they use for standard kitchen faucets and roll it down the antenna till it drops into the gap between antenna and base.

 

cuz the consensus of ppl in here are saying to dremel it or grind it down a lil bit. anyways thanks everyone. and sry if i didnt search., i thought the evo might be diff than the lancers.

 

Exact same story here (back when I had it).

 

nvm ppl. u can adjust the set screw in it, and use an o-ring and it looks about flush. not all the way but almost

 

the o-ring really does make it look almost perfect, although i found you cant adjust the set screw in the s2000 antenna

 

i heard the perrin gives crappy reception. i got the s2000 and it fits fine. picks up stations as good as stock.

 

someone. give a link to where u can buy one of these s2000.

 

ever think to just go to honda and take a look at it before u buy one? if im not mistaken, honda makes an s2000 antenna

 

i dont live by a honda dealership. i live in hick town usa.

 

s2000 antenna is the way to go....look on ebay u will find it under 15 bucks.

 

or you can find an s2000 and take it

 

Love the way you think ****

 

i did that. lol. but i already had one so i gave it to someone else
