No more worrying about your OEM Antenna breaking off in the car wash or garage. The Stubby Jr Antenna is just 2″ tall and built from billet 6061 aluminum. The texture is powder coat baked on so it won’t chip fade or peel. This rigid antenna replacement will not affect any satellite services such as On-Star GPS or Sirius Radio. To install simply unscrew your original antenna and screw in The Stubby Jr. It’s that simple!
The Stubby for the Nissan 350z fits the following:

If you’re streaming Bluetooth anyway… this is a no-brainer.

I hardly leave reviews on products that I bought here but this stubby antenna is amazing so I feel I have the need to leave a review for this.The trick to getting great reception is get the weakest station while your factory antenna is still screwed to the base then once you get to a weak station pull the factory antenna off and screw in this stubby antenna all the way down then slowly back it off till you get that weak station back to its static but somewhat still hear sound, now leave the stubby alone and start tuning, VOILA! You get atleast 90% of the station you’ve been getting from the longer antenna.

I wanted a stubby antenna for my S2000 but the Cravenspeed Stubby for the s2k is only available on weird online stores for $40 plus shipping. This one for the 350z fits the S2000 perfectly and cost half as much.Also the AM/FM signal seems good for such a small antenna. The signal seems a little bit weaker than with the oem one, but it’s a good trade-off imo.

Perfect fit for my 2016 Rogue. Works great! I haven’t noticed any reception degradation, the radio stations all sound the same as before. Easy to install, took less than 30 seconds.

Wanted a smaller antenna on outside of vehicle. I knew that the reception quality would go down, but I want worried. I typically stream music from my phone. It looks great. Is sturdy enough that I don’t have to worry about it breaking in the car wash. Reception quality went down about 20%.

I bought this so my antenna wouldn’t scrape when I pulled in/out of my garage. The only reason I’m giving one star is because it fits now. I have terrible radio reception. My screen used to tell me what song/artist was playing. That doesn’t happen anymore. Not worth the money because I don’t have a radio anymore. I have attempted to take off and reacted on again Incase I may have done it wrong. Nothing works. I’ll be putting my old antenna back on until I can find something better.

This item looks great and is easy to install, however, it does not work well at all. It only receives low frequency radio stations. Anything over 100.0 is nothing but static.

I needed a shorter antenna so I could pull my car into my garage. The Stubby did the trick. The only negative that I have is that the radio no longer is able to pull in one radio station I listen to that is far away from me. My SiriusXM still works well.

Looks great works as expected.

It is good but has signal issues
The product is nice and has a good quality but the fm/am doesn’t work if you turn it all the way through.It only works if you turn it halfway and not tight all the way.
