Shark Fin Antenna
Hello, guys! I want to put a shark fin antenna on my xb. Does anybody know where I can get those. Doesn't it come with the right color that will match my xb? I have a hypnotic teal mica and how much does it cost? Thanks!

Here's an old pic of both my 2Gen xB. I bought both my shark fin antenna from VS Garage and they came color-matched. Very happy with 'em.

Re: Shark Fin Antenna
How long those it take, before they send my antenna? It will be more than 2 weeks now... Usually, how long is the wait? Thanks!

Re: Shark Fin Antenna
Wonder if you can hook these up to the 1st gens for better radio reception on aftermarket decks

Re: Shark Fin Antenna
all you have to do is this

1) unscrew Antenna from the base unit!

2) Attach new antenna cord to the base of Antenna with screw already provided.

3) now this is tricky and I did mine by eyesight w/o tape to make lines.
Center the new sharkfin over the base antenna and remove protective tape. Center and push down firmly all the way around

4) VOILA you are done and have installed your new sharkfin antenna!!

COOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
