I was thinking about shaving the radio antenna off of my Celica and replacing it with a hidden radio antenna. My antenna is broken and never goes down, which in my opinion looks ugly. Would it be a good idea to shave it, or should I replace it with a stock antenna that actually works, or a non-stock shorter antenna?
Also, if I do decide to shave it, how would I go about doing it? How can I remove the stock one, wire the new one, cover the hole, etc? Is there a tutorial anywhere? |
