Came out to the truck this morning and my antenna was missing. Honestly not sure if it happened over night or at PC richards last night because I mostly listen to satelite radio. My neighbors truck in front of mine was missing its antenna also (although it is a hooptie so I am not sure if it had one in the first place.) I am guessing it was just some kids on the block causing some trouble.

Show off some aftermarket antenna before I go buy another stock one.
Thanks

 

Wouldn't it be nice to catch the SOB in the act!!!!

I would gag the motherfuther and use the antenna to give him the wipping he would never forget before I wiped the blood off of it and reinstalled it.

Then I would drive him out in the middle of nowhere and leave him.


Or worse yet, I would turn him over to the master of Pain.

 

Get rid of it.

 

Ok were is the link to the DIY. I think you posted info on it months ago

 

Just cut the hell out of your fender support and take a good life policy out on the wife.

 

tAMPA u da man.
Do not have the tools or resources for a job like that.

Anybody have a less painful alternative.

 

Look for a "hidden" antenna.

They run along the top of your windshield...

Or just get a billet one for like $25.

 

red loctite?

 

Now the question is how do I prevent them from stealing it again??

I park on the street so that sucks.

I am thinking if it was kids a little loc tite may do the job since they probably will not have a wrench to take it off, but if it is a band of high tec antenna theives I am not sure how to prevent it, any ideas:santa:

 

damn you are quicker than me

good stuff

 

Wire a hot lead to 110v and attach it to the antennae. They will only try again once.

 

The red loctight is good but could cause it to be a bigger problem. If it does not unscrew they just might snap it. That could also cause, some paint damage. I use a carcover and have to unscrew it takes couple of seconds! Might just be easier in the long run! Just a thought. Artie

 

Good point, I think I just might buy a 10 buck replacement and see if it happens again.

I had an arguement about a parking spot with a neighbor 2 days ago so it might have been that fat beotch too????

 

There are shorty units on e-bay (Currently item #7917781299), that are 14 inches long, don't wave around in the breeze and look good. At $14.00 with very fast shipping, you might wonder why you did not get one sooner.

 

I installed a 14" billet antenna and honestly the reception is terrible (but it does look good). I switch back to the factory for the winter and the reception is back to acceptable.
