Just take you stock antena off and cut it to the size you want it.

the wheels look way better with the new center caps.

Do you get any worse/better radio reception with that antenna?

I just cut my stock antenna shorter and have noticed some lesser reception.

But I usually listen to cd's.

I've often wondered why more people don't change the center caps to the pony logo.

i've got sirius sat radio.i dont listen to regular radio anymore.as for the caps,i could not find any that would fit my wheels so i bought the large size caps (2 1/2) from american muscle and modified my original caps by seperating the silver face from the plastic backing,than grinding the backing flat and as thin as i can.next i seperated the face of the new caps (they are held togeather by double sided foam tape)and using 3M molding tape to join them to the backing of my original caps.
