Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to install, and out of sight.

I purchased this antenna because I was tired of the stock antenna on my JLUR kept vibrating on idle. I had check a few different choices of what I wanted and instead of opting for a little bit bigger antenna. I went for this size cause I measured the size needed to not be able to see it from the drivers seat. Its like its not there.A few things, signal is strong but I live in the city, so probably if you go out there into the woods, performance might vary, for a commuter daily driver this is…

Pros
  • Its not working. Useless. I throw it to the garbage.
Cons
  • Great flexibility and look, but radio hardly picks up FM channels. Very fuzzy reception

Great look but low signal

Loved the look but the radio stations in my area fade in and out with some static.I’m trying the same one but longer if I find it

Pros
  • Easy to install. Looks good. Receives signals well.
Cons
  • Screws on easy

DOESNT FIT 2016 WRANGLER

THE STUD ON THE BOTTOM OF THE ANTENNA IS TWICE THE SIZE OF THE MOUNTING BRACKET ON MY 2016 WRANGLER. HAD TO RETURN IT Excellent, no surprises.!

Pros
  • Excellent, no surprises.
Cons
  • Antenna is easy to install, but my signal is much worse than the original antenna that came on my jeep.

don’t hesitate to buy it!

Perfect size. Hated the look of the OEM antenna. This new one looks so much better. Doesn’t affect the radio signal either.

Pros
  • Looks and fit great.
Cons
  • Poor reception compared to other antennas

Loss of reception best in my review

I changed this since my local car wash was not friendly with my old factory antenna and that problem is solved but as a person that my children call "old" since I spend most of my drive time listening to talk radio I find that most of my favorite stations both AM and FM are now static or cutting in and out most of the day and I live in a major metropolitan area and rarely further than 40 miles away from the radio stations that I listen to.

Pros
  • cheap and easy
Cons
  • May not have any advantage over factory-installed antennas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty good: my feedback

Looks good n fits good only neg is that statalight radio signal get lost time to time, unlike with original antenna. May not have any visual appeal, detracting from overall Jeep appearance.

Pros
  • Looks great on my wifes jeep, signal is very weak
Cons
  • May not have any visual appeal, detracting from overall Jeep appearance

Looks better than a coat hanger

But doesn’t seem to pull signals in much better than a coat hanger. Stations that used to come in very clearly fade in and out, even ones that are very close. This is a great antenna to use if you listen exclusively to streaming media. Just don’t plan on using it to pick up FM radio.

Pros
  • I love the look, but did loose some radio quality.
Cons
  • May stick out and obstruct the view of the driver when reversing

Doesn't improve the sound by much

The sound in my car is better but still doesn't sound clear still. That's my review. It's louder but still fades in and out

Pros
  • Looks good installed in 1 min
Cons
  • Offers diminished reception from relatively distant stations. Lots of static.

Low Profile, Great for Gladiator

Super for Gladiator. Keeps the antenna out of the way, no snags in the brush car wash. Reception AM/FM is great, but I am near a metro area. Easy install and completely enclosed with no metal exposed.

Pros
  • Easy install, quality looks good, but with the exception of not very good reception.
Cons
  • Installation may require special tools not readily available

Looks cool but lost some stations

I like the look of this antenna, however i did loose a station or two, plus stations that are strong on factory antenna are a bit more fuzzy. Local stations are still strong.

Pros
  • Audio & Video Accessories
Cons
  • Antenna may attract unwanted attention and lead to theft

Very happy with this purchase

The antenna is great and gets great sound quality. It sits below my line of sight, which I prefer to the metal antenna whipping around in my peripheral vision when going down the highway. The material seems to be good quality and it took all of 10 seconds to install. No notable decrease in sound quality or signal range. I’m happy with this for what I paid for it.

Pros
  • Much better option than Jeep’s overly long antenna - this one proportioned better for the Gladiator
Cons
  • The antenna may cause damage when using an automated car wash

Poor reception on my review.

I love the look of this antenna, but unfortunately I wasn't able to hear a major radio station based out of Indianapolis, and I only live an hour away from there. Lots of in and out static. Sad it didn't work.

Pros
  • Quality Material: 16 Inch Jeep Wrangler Gladiator Antenna features a black matte rubber-coated finish that is both scratch and weather resistant. This good-looking antenna fits just like an OEM antenna, but gives you a sporty off-road look.
Cons
  • May not work as well on steep mountain terrains

Just what I was looking for

My factory antenna was getting in the way when taking pictures on trails from inside the Jeep. This one is very low profile but doesn’t affect my sound quality.

Pros
  • Came within 1 day seems to be sturdy
Cons
  • The antenna may not match the overall aesthetic of other Jeep accessories

Great quality and reception!

Purchased the 9” antenna. Reception is great (equal too or better than oe) great quality and easy to install. Just a heads up the 9” is not visible from inside the cabin at all. The top of the antenna is right at the top of the cowl. No a negative just a heads up.

Pros
  • Hands down the best flexible antenna on the market!👍👍
Cons
  • Antenna may not perform well in areas with poor radio signals

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Cheap replacement. Terrible signal.

This antenna looks great and is easy to install but the main problem is the signal. I live in urban north Jersey. Signal should be more than good considering I’m 25 minutes away from Manhattan. Yet, most stations that I listen to cut out every few seconds. Got a 16” and the signal got a lot better.

Pros
  • Great impulse buy
Cons
  • May not handle harsh weather conditions well

Nice looking product

Easy to install, looks great, I do notice a slight loss of reception vs the stock antenna, but not bad around town. May not be covered under Jeep's warranty or extended warranties.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • May not be covered under Jeep's warranty or extended warranties

Flexible and works.

My old rod antenna got a little bent going through a car wash. I have been wanting to get a low profile antenna and this seemed very flexible and looked good for what I needed. I live in a major metro area between Tampa and St Petersburg Fl but my work is downtown St Pete. I park in a concrete garage most of the time and can see a more diminished signal but on the road it works fine. I would recommend. It’s solid, sturdy and just looks cool on my red wrangler jk unlimited.

Pros
  • Easy to install and has great reception!
Cons
  • Antenna may interfere with other radio signals, such as garage door openers

Great first Jeep mod!

One of the easiest, cheapest, Jeep mods to do and in my opinion one of the first ones you should do. I have this on my wife's Wrangler and just put one on my new Gladiator. So much better looking than the stupid stock one.

Pros
  • Antennas
Cons
  • May interfere with satellite radio signals

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great! good for me

What I really like about this antenna is that it said it isn't compatible with satelilte radio. Not only does it work on my 2011 Jeep Wrangler it works at traffic lights. Satelite has a tendency to cut out at traffice lights but this antenna still picks up my satelite radio.

Pros
  • Installed in 10 seconds. No issues with my SIRUS XM or radio signal.
Cons
  • May not be as durable as other antennas on the market

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product on my review.

Installed the antenna in 1 minute. It picks up all the channels without any static noticed. Works in the car wash also. That's my feedback!

Pros
  • Super easy to install and looks so much better than the factory antenna that came with my Jeep!
Cons
  • The range sucks. You need to be very close to pick up stations
