And then there's me, that went the other route and has a 3' CB antenna in the stock antenna mount. Poor little Yaris looks like an RC car at autocross when I put the orange flag on top of the antenna. =^.^=

The one from JDM Pit claims to offer 50% better reception.

I wanted Genuine Toyota, so I paid the price.

I just ordered one... $3 shipping to Canada is pretty good, most places would be another $10 on top of the $10 for the antenna!

Yeah we usually get raped in Canada when ordering from the US. There are a few little things I want for my M Coupe but the shipping on some of them is more than the actual part... quite ridiculous.

Can you post a pic of it on the car from a bit further away?

Also, any noticeable difference in reception? I don't listen to FM much, but would like to get the stations in clearly when I do...

Cheers! M2

Ouch! It's in the middle-to-upper 70s here in southcentral Texas! I hear the East Coast has been much colder than normal...

Thanks! M2

Got the same one as jaser - maybe slight degradation on weak stations but nothing I would call dramatic.
