Haha... very exciting. :0) So far, no reception issues. YAY! Sorry for the horrible photos. And thanks to chefboyarlee. Thanks for a great deal and smooth transaction!
Definitely worth it for me. :0) Bought it from a member on here for $65. You can purchase one from the PC store for $74, I think?
I tried to buy a Prius one in like Mid November.. they had a 4 week wait.. I wanted it for Christmas Present so I couldn't wait. Went to "another company" and paid $71 delivered. Right in the ballpark.. I did buy the extended warranty through Troy though! Great to deal with.. very easy seamless transaction!
Looks GREAT! I really want one. I just wish the wait wasn't so long. I've been thinking.... (dangerous, just ask my wife) I have a Barcelona Red. I am wondering what a Black Shark Fin would look like. The standard antenna is black. The black fin would really stand out. Am I crazy???? Bob PS I painted a couple of walls in my house bright red. My wife though I was crazy but now she really like them.
The shark fin is a little antenna that looks like - - well a shark's fin that replaces the stock antenna on the Prius (also popular on other sporty cars). Benefits: Looks is about it. Reception is worse. Aerodynamic benefit is negligible. Might be a little less hassle through automatic car washes. Also less susceptible to vandalism.
I think it looks better, but the reason I got it was to be able to hide my sirius antenna. I got both antennas up in there and it really cleaned up the look. I don't know how it will effect reception, but I don't listen to the radio, only sirius and CDs...
