Removed my stock antenna that left a gaping hole which I covered up temporarely with black vinyl.

Anyways, I used to have the S2000 antenna mod, but I've always wanted to do this... makes things more symetrical.
I bought the antenna from here:

http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_sc/stor...l/antennas.html

"Enfig Base" and the "Metra". $26.00 Shipped.

To install:

I removed the rear washer nozzle, dremeled the hole a little bigger, stuck the base in, wired it up and here it is...It works pretty well, super clear radio signal.

Great alternative to s2000 antenna. Not too expensive too and it's practical.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

There isn't a nozzle anymore.. Would it shoot from the antenna?

Actually... I never did find the tube that was connected to the nozzle... so yeah if I used the rear washer it probably start squirting inside my trunk or something...

You know what'd be funny if it set it right on top of the back seats (if i still had them) and when there's passengers back there have it squirt them... lmao.. hahah

I'm ghey like that. =D

lmao, this reminds me of a freind who turned the nozzle around)or took the cover off or something) on an old wagon of his so when driving down the road, he could shoot the car behind him with water/washer fluid, lol!

lol not so funny. I hate crap like that, it's funny until you find someone who is pissed off about it. my dad had a kid behind him who made is front nozzles spray cars in front of him, sprayed my dad in his convertible while at a red light. when the light turned green, my dad didn't go, but backed up as close as he could to block the kid there then got out of the car and stormed up to him. didn't fight or anything just told him to grow up but still, do it to the wrong person and you'll get your ass kicked
