I know that there is a lot of problem with these mechanical power antennas, but has anyone changed theirs out for something else? My power antenna just gave out and I don't want just any antenna on my s14. I was wondering if anyone has put one of this window antenna on. METRA Deluxe high performance amplified antenna is one that I was going for. Are they good because there are no reviews for them? I want a clean look without having an ugly antenna there.
Thanks

I have used a S2000 antenna off of ebay on all of my s13s that had a broken antenna. You just have to wire the power right and they work wonderful. and are under $40shipped.

I dont thing you should have any issues using one on a s14.

match5 is talking about the SharkAttackII antenna from locustom. http://www.locustom.com/shark2_kit.htm
i've been using it for almost two years, works fine.

but no one likes the idea that you have a window antenna? with my tints, no one will be able to see the antenna. and it will be tucked away from view.

You already have a window antenna. All S13/S14s have a diversity system that uses both the rod antenna and a window mounted unit. I've seen people just split the cable behind the radio and solder another end on to just the window antenna cable, seems to work decently.
