Where can I get a short antennea?

The OE one that comes with 2005 tacomas is too long to fit into my garage, and I dont wnat to be hopping in and out taking that thing on and off every time I want to park in the garage. I want a shorter antenna. If it could look like the stock one, that would be a bonus. it has to be 12"-18" tops...Anyone know where I can get one?

if you have a whip.. should be able to find something to screw into it at your local autoparts store, a univeral antenna should work.. i think those threads are standardized

Where were you three weeks ago, I just tossed one. I finally got my old whip back on after a year or so. I finally realized that my Taco will never fit in my garage, and didn't like the shortie...

Theyre not. Theyre over the roof for better reception...

I've seen some new tacomas and it looked like it has powered antennas.

I've no reason to believe the '05 mounts / threading is different from the earlier Tacos, so....

You can find some pics, ideas, brand names, and links in this recent CustomTacos thread on replacement antennas:
