That's a NEW one for me!

So what AND how will this help with changing oil faster?

Product does not appear as the same level of quality as original, but works well. Doesn't fit the opening in fender just right. Well enough to use.

This product was fairly easy to install mechanically and worked well. However, it is advertised as compatible when that may only be true in part. It comes with a Motorola radio jack for which no counterpart exists in the car installation. My 2006 Corolla LE has no modular connection like this, but rather it has a direct wire connection. To make this work, I had to cut that wire and solder on a series of radio shack acquired parts to create a plug in for the Motorola connector. Alternatively, I could have cut off the Motorola jack and soldered directly to the car antenna wires, but this would have made it harder to return it (if not impossible) if it didn't work. Antenna wires are tedious to solder since they are of a very thin gauge. Buyers should be made aware of this in the description.

This antenna is stronger than OEM. It fits perfectly with no modifications needed. Excellent product.

It is an exact reproduction of the original except for the cable connecting it ti the radio. That connection cable is an improvement! Delivery was quick. I am very pleased!

The product was the only option I could find to replace the factory antenna, which I was led to believe was the cause of he poor AM reception I experience. Replacing the radio did not solve this issue. The antenna was not a simple drop-in replacement. It was necessary to enlarge the hole in the fender, and a slight mark remained on the fender where the old antenna had attached. It is not the antenna's fault, but my reception problems remain.

The Antenna look to be very good. I need ed to replace a car wash damaged antenna. This would not have worked unless I would have wanted to add a lot of work to use this product to make a repair. I had to return this product and purchase a actual OEM part. The antenna looked to be very high quality. It would be great for a new install on a vintage car restoration.

This product was not a drop in as stated. Had to modify the hole. Handling the antenna and the antenna wire fell out of the antenna, not crimped firmly. Repaired and cut hole a little larger and installed. Seems expensive for what you get and needs better quality control.

The antenna wire was just too thin did not have a plug big enough to put into the body of the truck. Wire was not long enough to go from the fender to the radio. There were no instruction on how to install the antenna due to its being different than the manufacturer antenna and wires. Still have a problem getting am radio stations.
