****...

it took me 10 min to make 1 of those...

you need an antenna that has the same diameter all the way down...(i got one off my pops 87 f150... i had the one with the "swirl goin down it)

i just popped the ball off... cut it with an air tool so that is was equal w/ the roof line... smoothed the end with a file... popped the ball back on... and painted it black...

looks badass... people ask me where i got it and i tell them i modded it and they say it looks cool...

reception is the same (not that i use the radio often)

thats the easiest free mod...

i dont want to affect MT sales but its a waste to spend $$ on 1...

i have before / after pics at home... i'll try to post them this weekend...
