I ordered a Honda S2000 Antenna for a very good price off the web. I shoudl be getting it some time today, so I will try to get some pics and post a review. The total bill with shipping was only about 20!! including shipping not a bad price for the upgrade. Especially when all the other companies charge 25+ for it

The S2000 antenna was the first upgrade I did on day 2 of owning HARMINI. I just went to my local Honda dealer and picked it up. I don't remember exact cost, but I think it was just a buck or two over $20 and I got instant gratification. After seeing the other aftermarket antennas, I'm thrilled that I went with the S2000 one. It's short and stubby, just like the MINI

 

I'd be interested in seeing a close-up shot of the S2000 antenna installed...

 

I'm probably going to get shots tonight, so I'll post them for you

 

I have the Alta Performance version of the stubby antenna. These stubs make a BIG difference IMHO in the looks of the mini. No more remote controlled car look. Worth the upgrade. Just take the antenna with you at night if you live in a shaddy neigborhood since people have been known to steal them :???:

 

Went to a honda dealership's parts dept and got one , installed it... within 5 minutes. They said "EVERYONE'S getting one"....

This antenna fits most cars allegedly.


Here's mine....

 

Forst thing I did too. Cheap and easy. That's the way I like a lot of things:-)!

 

i have it as well....
good reception...nice look

peace,
d

 

Found it HERE for $15.98 plus $3.85 shipping. Not bad.

 

Great... nobody steal the antenna off my S2000 k?

MightyMiniz - it looks great!

One question -- when you say it's easy to install, do you mean for the average person for a half auto-mechanic person?

Don't have my MINI yet, but from looking at the replacement antenna, it should just screw right on to the base.

 

Very Good! I may just have to buy that S2000 stubby and take it with me to the dealership when I pick up my car! I could change it out right there and drive out of there looking good!

 

this is funny, when I owned the Lexus, all the kids on the newsgroup were rushing out to buy an S2000 antenna coz it looked better than the stock one. I bet they've sold a ton of them

 

Check out this link for a closeup of the S2000 antenna installed on a Cooper.

Why pay $20 for an antenna when you can look for a Honda s2000 in a parking lot and steal it? J/K No but really, those antennas look really nice.

 

I installed it, and it's a perfect fit. I didn't have my camera on me, but I will later. I got it from http://www.hondacuraworld.com for 16.95 including shipping!

Will get the pics today

 

You don't have to wait, buy it at a Honda dealership. About $22.50 plus tax, I can't remember the exact price. Just ask for an S2000 antenna.

Did any one read this.. only 16.95 including shipping... cheaper than the ones above, and one took 2 days to get to me... !!! don't over pay!!

 

Wow, that would really clash with my GPS fin...

 

S2000 and acura MDX antenna are the exact same thing....i got my antenna for free from a totalled MDX......do what i do and find a totaled MDX or s2000

 

Here is a comparison shot of the stock antenna along side my S2000 antenna:



The Honda antenna is more suited to the compact lines of the MINI.

 

Gee, I got mine from my local Moss distributor. It came from moos in a Honda wrapper with a Honda part number! About $20. Direct fit!

I ordered it from these folks on Thursday, and it came yesterday (Saturday). 2 - 3 days?? Not bad for coming from CA to MA. Very nice looking.
