Short Antenna For Ford F150, Bronco, Dodge Ram 1500 2009-2023 | 7 Inch Antenna For Pickup Trucks | KSaAuto Antenna Accessory For Improved Signal Strength Review

Excellent product, installed on my 2016 F150 in less than 5 minutes. Good reception for local radio stations within about 35 miles of my driveway. Looks good on my truck, has survived several car washes already (touch free automatic). I cannot say on the soft brush car washes because I never use them. And the bonus for me is that it doesn't hit the top of my garage entrance going in and out like the factory 30 plus inch tall Ford antenna.

Where I am has an underground parking garage with pipes overhead. I drive a pickup truck so I'm a little higher than the cars. Every time I drive through the garage and go out the overhead door, my old antenna hit everything. It was unsettling as it always sounded like I was doing damage to my vehicle. This stopped that so now I'm not hearing those noises. And it works well. I work in iowa where it's mostly open fields and farms. Thought I might lose reception due to its shorter size but was…

Got 8 inch antenna because stock was hitting garage door. Read most of the reviews saying reception was as good or better than stock. Seemed to good to be true. It was. I had maybe 2 radio stations after installing this. Great antenna if all you care about is looks and don't listen to radio

I bought this antenna with the hopes it would make it through the car wash. So far so good! I do not normally listen to FM radio, but as far as I can tell the reception is close to what I was able to get with the factory antenna.

The base of the antenna is too narrow and not deep enough to fit completely on the truck antenna connection point. May require professional installation!

I don’t use the radio much, but there is a slight loss of reception with this antenna. However, it looksmuch better than the long wippy factory antenna. If I used the radio more, I’d probably look around for something else, but since I mostly use Apple Car Play, form overrides function in the case.

This is by far the best shorty antenna I have purchased. Reception is strong on HD channels as well as standard stations.

Just what I wanted low profile without giving up reception. Able to receive distant stations with ease without fade. Wanted to replace OEM antenna that distracted while driving as it bent back from moving.

Very easy to install. Works well. Needed a shorter antenna because the long one kept getting caught when I drive in tight places.

Broke during road trips. Maybe after numerous automatic car washes and multiple road trips, it finally just gave in and broke.

I was worried about quality of the signal, but it has been great. The short antenna is better for my garage entry and going through the car wash

Did not come with what was needed for the install the threaded part the best part is I threw the box out so now I can’t return that’s 20$ something I will never get back thanks

The antenna provides factory performance in receiving even distant stations. My only complaint is over time the middle section can weaken and eventually break.

OK, 18 FM PRESET CHANNELS AND 12 AM CHANNELS BEFORE NEW ANTENNA PUT ON TRUCK. AFTER PUTTING THE NEW ANTENNA ON, "ALL" CHANNELS AM/FM STILL CLEAR AS BEFORE. RAN THROUGH BOTH BANDS AND FOUND MANY OTHER CHANNELS JUST AS CLEAR. I LOOKED AT MANY OF THE OTHER SHORT ANTENNAS AND THE BIGGEST COMPLAINT WAS "LOST" OR GARBELED CHANNELS. NOT THE CASE WITH THIS ANTENNA. I PAY SET FEE AT MY CAR WASH, SO 3-4 TIMES A WEEK IS NORMAL, MY FACTORY ANTENNA WAS LIKE 31", JUST ACHING TO GET RIPPED OFF. THIS ONE LOOKS

Just wish I would of gotten a little bigger oneIt does the job that I wanted it too especially when it comes to the car wash’s

I purchased this antenna to replace the original factory one. This antenna held up going through the car wash. We listen to Sirius radio, so this antenna is not really needed. I did test the antenna with FM and AM stations and it worked very well, with the stations coming in strong and clear. This is a very good antenna for the money and I would purchase again.

Love this thing. It's what I've been looking for. I was sick of having to take the factory one off before going in the car wash. Am/fm reception is just as good as the factory one was. Looks cool as well.

I have a station I Like to listen to and it fades out in certain areas. installed this and it got worse. to be fare I haven't installed the second one {on the right in the pic} that came with it and I will try that one next. I could have a bad connection in my antenna itself and this option should work if that's the case. for the price its worth a shot.

Unfortunately this does not work as advertised. Was attempting to improve radio reception (specifically AM reception for sports broadcasts) and after installing I had neither AM nor FM reception. Nothing but static. Uninstalled and everything was back to normal. Not difficult to install (15 minutes) but the advertised result was non achieved.

Is 2022 no one uses their radio anymore lol, but it looks really nice on our truck and you still get really good reception with it even on the road in those dead areas and it car wash proof!
