I might be in the minority, but I like the look of the old school antenna.
Agreed, stub looks tacky. Kinda like people are trying too hard, like overacting.

But do it if it fills your hole. Make sure it's the right fit so you don't break your hole

I don’t see why it wouldn’t work, but just to let you know…I have my bronco loaded on my Amazon acct where it says “select a vehicle from your garage”, and when I clicked on your link, it says in big red letters, “This does not fit 2022 Bronco”.
Thanks for looking out! It isn't always accurate but I'll give it a try and if it doesn't fit I'll just return it.

LOL, thanks guys, I like the idea of the stubby one but with the mirror mounted lights I think it might look too "stubby" for me 😂

Think I'm going to go with caps like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B..._title_srh_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AVPI2JLZK7H44

Will post photos once I get it if you're all interested.

Is there any estimation on the relative loss of FM reception on these stubby antennae? I doubt any of them are doing actual di-pole halving measurements.

Hello fellow Bronco6G members! Wanted to get a few opinions, what is everyone doing with their antenna? I removed mine because it hits the garage when I park, but mainly I'm wondering if leaving it off could cause damage (water from rain sitting int he antenna hole), or if I should just get a shorter aftermarket one.
Get the 13" Rydonair off Amazon. great proportion

I like the OEM antenna so much I put a second mini version on a magnet to use as early warning when my soft top is 1/2 back. Don't want to be hitting any garage openings!

Voice command to tune to a radio station always sends me to the internet version, so the antenna is probably not needed. I just like the look.

Saw that antenna on Amazon, how well does it work with FM reception?
