Hello all. I have been thinking of ways to get rid of the entirely too long antenna the fieros came with so i was looking at short style antennas and tried to find pics with them on a fiero. Their are so many styles and i was wondering if any of you guys and gals have pics of your short antennas to give me some ideas?

thanks in advance,
Tommy "Gunz"

Thanks all for the comments. I am trying not to hide it. I know it looks way better but if it was just a few inches less the antenna would look great and stock looking like fiero hohos. Fiero hoho how many inches did you shorten it? thanks so much for both of you.

Tommy,

Sorry it took so long to get back to you.

The antenna in the pic is shortened 13" from stock.

I did some digging and found 3 other shorty antennas I did and I'll sell em for $15.00 shipped.



The 2 longer ones in the pic are the same length as in my previous pic.

The smaller one was shortened 19" from stock.

Anyone interested in these PM me, Tommy has first pick if he's interested.

on my xtreme i took the factory antenna and put the bottom in my bench vise and took and twisted it from the base of it and it came apart easily, then i cut it with a bolt cutter ant pushrd it back into the threaded base, and screw'd it back on, slick as can be and free
