It sucks, I got an email today saying its out of stock, but on the site it doesn't say that. So now I have to wait and I'm leaving for the summer on May 27th so I hope I get it before then or I'll .

 

We already made an order with Ford Racing that should be arriving next week sometime. I would put good money on the fact that youll get the wheel before the 27th

 

Awesome news! And I have to say I was impressed with the shipping time on the antenna! It left on May 2 and I got in yesterday, so only 4 days to get it to Canada!

 

I tested out the radio just now. And I guess the FM where I live sucks or something. I live kinda far away from downtown so I'm gonna try and take my car downtown and see what the reception is like down there. AM works fine though! I'm kinda thinking I shoulda got a longer one maybe. But I really wanted one in black and I can't find any that are in black and longer than 8". I've got CDs and iPod to listen too!

 

 

When I get home I will!! LOL!

 

Dont expect much reception with an 8 in antenna. Ive heard you can chop the stock one down to be level with the roof and it gets fine reception. I still have mine the stock length, I think the shorty ones look silly and I dont really EVER notice mine.

 

Ya I'm thinking that my reception is gonna be bad no matter what... this kinda sucks now... Cause there is this direct quote from the product info page, "Now Mustang and Ford owners can replace their 29 inch tall mast with our 8 inch tall fixed black antenna yet still retain excellent radio reception" So that really sucks...

I did a google search for a am/fm antenna booster and found a thing that sells for like $10... I would have cut my antenna but the on 04s Ford made them not black and they don't seem as cutable as the older ones. I'm not sure what to do now... Maybe I should just find an 94 - 03 antenna and cut that one up... maybe I could use the short one for shows or something...

 

I drove the car to work today and when I got closer to downtown I was able to get normal FM stations but they were still a little fuzzy.

 

don't steering wheels cost an arm and leg to install? that goddamn airbag needs to be re-packed and stuff. my dad owns a garage and he says its a ridiculous amount of money

If that's the case I better start a company that installs steering wheels!

 

mine looks like a telephone pole

 

Mine did too, obviously. And when I read the little description on the web page that said I would still get good reception I was like, sweet I'll order that. And now I get REALLY bad reception. But I think it's because the radio stations where I live aren't good.

 

i got one from ebay, black coated, 8 inch and it gets awesome reception.

 

I'm thinking that it's possible the radio stations where I live just suck really bad. I found this: http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/P...enna%20booster Anyone think it might actually work? Also do you think that red wire would be some kind of power wire that you'd have to tap a power line for?
