REVIEW:S2000 look Antenna

[LO_N_SXC]

Well what can I say but it is 100% better looking than the OEM LS fuggly antenna, I had seen these going around for quite a while and so I thought I would get my self one installed on my LS, installation time was no more than 15 - 20 mins and requires very basic tools, the rear left boot trim has to be loosened up to make enought room to get your hands in to get the job done but its not necesary for it to be removed.....

Pros: Very good build and quality, Looks much better than OEM, better reception and since it is a fixed type antenna there is no more weird erratic noices from the rear when turning on the radio.

Cons: On the LS Integra the contour of the rear quater panel makes the antenna sit on a bit of an angle towards the outside of the car, thus needing some playing round with and rotating of the antenna to get a decent look, were as on DC2 integras dont have this problem since that same section is much flatter.

Overall i give the S2000 look antenna 4 1/2 Stars out of 5......

That looks very cool... but my Civic has an inbuilt antenna (into the glass or something) which I think is also pretty decent. Ironically enough, I don't listen to the radio at all in my car anyway... :S *loves mp3/wma cd stacker*

^^^^ Thanks mang!

Do u have to wire it into ur headunit to get it working?

cheers

[LO_N_SXC]

^^^ Not really all you have to do is connect the antenna to the signal cable that runs beheind the head unit and wire up the signal booster to yur old power cable which is originally used for the OEM Power antenna so that it can go up and down.

wow so have to rewire the antenna behind the headunit from the rear of the car to the center consolde?

thanks

[LO_N_SXC]

Nah man
the wire that runs from beheind the unit is already in place since its the same one used for the stock power andtenna, its basically a plug out the old one and plug in the new one.

hey, looks pretty mad, ive always wanted to put one on my dc2, but never knew where to get them from, or how to install them. Only reason i wanna put one on is coz my electric antenna dont work atm lol so theres always the crappy looking antenna sticking out of the back

[tunacnt]

[SIP117]
