Here's my information...........
The base and the antenna are all rubber so the elements don't bother it. It has a loaded base so you wont notice any change in reception...
This antenna is specific to only those cars that have non-electric antennas...you know the big GM whip types.
Installation is really easy..you just unscrew your stocker, screw in mine...thats it!

See, you didn't specify convertible and most don't look up your profile to try to help, so you got the wrong answers. The only cars that have the unscrew type are the FRC/Z06. The coupe is integrated into the glass. To replace your antenna with a shorty, you'll have to remove your antenna and mounts and replace the entire ***'y with the FRC type. I'm not sure why you'd want to either, unless you broke your current antenna shaft and don't want to replace it.

Depends on where its cut....
What will decrease the effectivness of an antenna is its ability to pick up radio waves of a specific wave amplitude...
Antenna lenghts are set for the "average" amplitude their expected to recieve too short or too long you degrade the antenna performance...
So considering that GM made the stock antenna at a specific lenght for a reason...What I tell people who are consdering cutting their stock antenna mast (vs buying a shortie) is to cut in whole 1/2 fractions of their full antenna lenght..
ie..if your antenna is 36in long then you should cut at 18in or 9in ( 9 being 1/2 of 18) dont just eye ball it
