Description of AntennaX 50 Cal Silver Bullet (5

fits 1985 thru 2021 Chevy 1500 Silverado. Replace your factory antenna with this stylish yet functional LOW PROFILE (5.5 inch) Silver 50 Caliber Ammo Antenna. Made out of T-6061 Billet Aluminum with a hard Silver anodized finish that will not chip, scratch or fade over time. Installation is very simple. This is a PLUG-N-PLAY antenna, which means it screws onto your existing antenna mount (a direct bolt-on part, no wiring involved) and takes a minute to do. How is the Reception--4 out of 5 reception with most people noticing no difference at all. Makes a great gift idea for past and present Military, Policeman, and Outdoorsman.

Doesn't fit 2020 Chevy Silverado

Tried all configurations with supplied parts, unfortunately this item does not fit the latest 1500 Silverado. To get the product it is necessary to destroy the packaging - I doubt if I can return it. Looks like I'll lose $30 if I can't find anyone I know whose model year will accept an aftermarket antenna. A bit disappointed - just a warning to anyone considering buying this for a late model Silverado.

Pros
  • How To - 4 times out of 5 with most people noticing any difference at all.
Cons
  • Protection

Nice looking antenna, complex installation

I was able to get it working but it wasn't as easy as it looks in the picture. The 2011 Silverado has an oval cover that covers the antenna. The supplied small extension cable did not fit the thread of the antenna rod. The larger extension threaded worked, but would not fit through the oval hole in the cover. I had to remove the cover and cut out the inside of the oval so it could be flared over the large extension, then the smaller extension could be screwed over the larger one, and then the…

Pros
  • Great gift idea for military, police and tourists past and present.
Cons
  • Big and bulky

If you don't care about FM/AM then go for it.

Cool, easy to install, easy instructions. The only flat can only be seen from a distance of 12 inches or less. The carbon foil glued to the body panel is wrapped unevenly, but only 1-2 cm, not enough to be noticed from the nearest parking space. It took 2 weeks for my wife to find out it was there. Very reserved and unobtrusive, but as soon as he gets noticed, he becomes a topic of conversation. I live 40 miles from Chicago and 50 miles from Rockford. We used to be able to get all stations…

Pros
  • Replace your factory antenna with this stylish yet functional LOW (5.5") Silver 50 Caliber Ammo Antenna. Manufactured from T-6061 billet aluminum with a hard, silver anodized finish that will not chip, scratch or tarnish over time.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
