Review on 2-Inch CravenSpeed Stubby Jr Antenna For Mini Cooper Models 2001-2022 - Compatible And Optimized For Improved Search Engine Visibility. by Matt Lewis

I don't listen to the radio. Music is done through my phone via bluetooth. So I haven't done an extensive test on the reception but it works well enough driving around town from the little I had the radio on. I go the antenna because I wanted to be able to use a certain rooftop carrier without having the box hang way over the hood of the car. The stock antenna was in the way so I swapped it with the stubby. No more issue with the carrier placement. I also think it simply looks better than the stock one too.
