Reception seems fine. It is aluminum and costs about $20.00.

the stubbie is made by Alta, all vendors sell them.

This used to be a HUGE problem with the early VWs and they were very expensive - like $50 in the late 80s. I used to take mine off my car when I parked it because it would get stolen otherwise.
