Default Non-Corvette Audio Question

Fellow Corvette lovers,

My fiancee’s Toyota RAV has a radio reception problem. Apparently, from searching the web, this is a known problem with the placement and type of antenna but I couldn't find any replacement antennas. Anyone know where I can get a replacement antenna that I can install to fix the recepetion problem? Will an antenna from Radio Shack fit/work?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike...if it is a known problem have you asked the dealer if they have a solution? If that is a no go I would check with a local car audio shop for an antenna. The problem you will run into when purchasing an antenna is fitment. There are different ways they mount to the fender and different mounting rings. Whatever you get just make sure that it is for your vechicle and not a universal. You will get a much better fit and finish that way.
