Superb Reception. No matter how stylish an antenna is, it should provide proper function and in this department, this Reflex antenna doesn’t disappoint.

Durable Build Quality. This antenna’s internal structure is made from durable alloy before being covered in a high-quality rubber sheath.

Finally, the base receives a black powder coat finish adding corrosion protection.

Much better looking than the stock antenna
I got a little confused when installing it, but watching installation videos really helped. I was not strong enough to get the existing antenna off though (there was one part when you had to twist / turn it). Just get some help if you need it! Love how it looks

Looks great, works bad
I was skeptical about putting a short antennae on, but really wanted to get rid of the OEM whip antennae. Fortunately, I listen to satellite mostly because the FM reception is not good at all. The base looks cool, but I might see about putting slightly longer antennae on to hopefully increase reception even a little bit.

Antenna upgrade
The installation is quick and extremely simple. The mount looks great and in my opinion is more secure than stock. Now for the antenna. Not my favorite. I got the 15” because I was afraid the reception on the 6” wouldn’t be the best. Well I got the experience I was afraid of with this antenna. I will be replacing the antenna.

2021 Wrangler - OndreaP

Great look
Love the change from stock antenna to the 9”. Looked at the 13” but once on, glad I went with the the lower profile. Install was easy but I’d recommend a flat head screw driver and pliers. After watching a YouTube video, I understood you will likely end up breaking the stock cap, it doesn’t remove cleanly, paint is fine, but not sure how anyone does this salvaging the stock antenna cover. After that’s off, you’ll want 3/8 and 5/16 wrenches. Those will help with the antenna itself and the nuts holding the antenna bracket to the panel. Easy install after that! Love this, would highly recommend.

Nice Upgrade for the price
Relatively easy to put on. Getting the OEM base off is a bit of a task as it can't just be popped off. Found a great video on YouTube that showed me how though. Install was a breeze.

Looks good, not the best signal
This looks really good in the Jeep, but I seem to get diminished reception on a couple stations. I’d buy it again though.
