Power Antenna on Ebay

Anyone ever buy one of these antennas? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...908749453&rd=1

How's the quality and look when placed on our cars? I'm worried also about the life of the thing at $30. Haven't ordered or anything, I'm just starting to look around to replace the bad one I have now.

I have one that looks like that in my car and in my previous Camaro. The one on my old Camaro (which my brother owns now) has been on there for several years and the one my car has been on for about a year and a half, both with no problems ever. Like I said though I doubt they are the same exact ones in that auction, but they are at the least a similar design.

Thanks.

The info and feedback from the company seems pretty decent. Lots of satisfied customers but a small percent of negative feedback. $30 seems hard to beat either way.

What do you guys think though of a chrome mast on an fbody though? My stock mast is faded black, but I remember reading of people saying chrome masts don't look good on our cars.

I was worried how the chrome antenna would look on my car too. Then I realized it wasn't a big deal, not that many people actually take the time to look at the antenna that close. Besides mines got so much dirt/grease on it it's hard to tell it's chrome.

It looks like an OEM piece...they sure don't offer much of a warranty though.
