Possbay Universal Car Shark Fin Antenna AM/FM Radio Signal Roof Aerial for Auto SUV Truck Offroad with Adhesive Base White

Wanted to get rid of that huge antenna mast but didn't want a solution that involved tools. This fit over my old base fine, but I did use two strips of electrical tape to hold the wire down before the coil inside. The coil is a little unnecessary as it just takes up more space, but if your savvy just do what other reviewers did and modify the wire to your liking, or even just a little tape like I did. I got the adhesion onto the base of the product fine, but the adhesive strip does come bent up like other reviewers have mentioned. I also got it screwed in and placed on the roof with no problem. The screw is taller than the treading on my car but other reviewers have mentioned that as well, so get a smaller screw if that bothers you. I do see a slight gap between the plastic and the roof where some of the adhesive strip can be seen in some places, but this is only upon very close inspection and doesn't bother me at all. Standing anywhere around my car this thing looks factory installed and the black gloss just shines amazingly. I won't lie, upon turning my radio on in the driveway I was only able to get one FM channel. It could be due to the longer screw causing a weak connection to the products antenna, or the fact that this isn't as effective as a tall mast. I do live in the country so maybe signal improves when closer to the signals source. Satellite radio came in fine. This isn't a problem for me as I mostly use my cars radio as an AUX for a tablet mounted setup I have in my car. If your main source is FM radio you might want one with dual antenna if you live out in the country. If you mostly use AUX or live in a city than this will be no problem for you. Final thoughts, I'm very satisfied with the product. It definitely makes my Dart stand out and accents the other gloss parts I've installed. Setup was fast and easy, and the final result was definitely worth the money and tape for me.

It works! Fits tightly with the included 3M double sided tape.

Gave the look I wanted but the radio reception tanked. What was 100% clear with the original antenna became fuzzy most of my work drive. And about 10min of my 40min dive had no FM radio channels except 1 of the 15+ I normally get. Just yanked it off and tossed it in the trash where it belongs.

Works well. Installation was a bit difficult. The sticky pad needs to be thicker. Looks good, works good and was inexpensive.

I unfortunately didn't get pictures before I installed the antenna unit, but there were some minor issues that ultimately took this from a 5-star review down to 4. At first the piece did not fit over my 2016 Subaru Crosstrek's existing antenna base (after unscrewing the antenna stick) but on the base of this antenna there is a crescent shaped piece that can be removed to accommodate a larger original antenna base on the car. After removing that, it fit just fine. The other minor issue I found was that the precut 3M adhesive sheet was trimmed slightly too small to reach the outer edges of the antenna base. It still fits well and provides a full seal, but it would be nice if it came closer to the edge instead of leaving a small gap around the edge. Other than those notes, the antenna is great. My car has the Subaru crystal black silica paint color, which is a gloss black with a glittering sparkle in it, and though this antenna is a basic high gloss black, the difference isn't noticeable. I took the attached pictures on a very sunny day which makes the colors look even more alike, but unless you were actively looking for a difference you'd never notice.

The looks of this unique shark fin antenna rates a 5+ but most basic construction features of the product needs to be improved. The screws that fasten the base to the body are too short to provide a secure grip. The screws cannot be tightened well enough because they only engage the body with less than 2 threads which barely bite into the plastic body bosses and then rip out with very little torque. I used an adhesive to secure the base to the body and the screws into their holes. A sealant adhesive was needed anyways because the bonding tape was not made to go all the way to the edge of the body. Therefore, the seam where the base fits into the body is not protected from water getting inside because the bonding tape does not cover the seam. The bonding tape was too thin as well so there was no way it would conform to even the slightest amount of roof curvature. I replaced the tape with a thicker, heavy duty 3M brand of bonding tape. The antenna wiring design concept was good but fell short of being properly functional with the makers attempt in creating an effective dipole antenna. The coiled wire did not serve its intended purpose as the second leg of the dipole design, matching up with the roughly 32 inches of copper trace antenna leg adhered to the inside of the shark fin body. The coil idea was right but the execution was wrong. My radio reception was terrible when I tested it out prior to installation. I replaced the coil with a roughly 32" insulated copper core from a TV coaxial cable. My radio reception is now outstanding and actually a bit better than the original short monopole OEM antenna that came with my Soul. I now realize less lost reception while driving under a particular overpass that had once always been quite noticeable as it blocks clear reception. I appreciated the larger size of this shark fin because it fit over my 2013 Kia Soul+ antenna base quite nicely, plus enough room to add the extra length of copper wire I installed. I also painted it to match my Kia's color. I like the looks of this antenna better than any other I have seen. This turned out to be a project installation but I am very pleased with the results. I added a reflector, cut from a piece of DOT reflector tape, for an extra bit of functionality and aesthetics. (see attached pics)

Muy buena pieza para cambiar la apariencia del auto, el único inconveniente que no traía el tornillo para adaptar la antena

It's bigger than the regular ones which fitted perfectly for my 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe. Reception is amazing. So for anyone with a larger antenna base, I recommend this one. One thing to note is that it may not look as sleek as the other shark fins, however it works.

👍

It was a little bigger than I thought but fit and was Secure on my truck. One draw back is my AM Signal was a bit weak but all in all good buy

Nice and sleek. Very good quality
