Jaydrama Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Installed the Shark fin antenna last week, and love it. A bit pricey, but much cleaner and up-to-date than the black mast. One departure from the installation instructions, though: instead of a blow dryer (which I don't own) I warmed the adhesion area with a microwave heating pad. Perfect! Made installation possible on a 50 degree day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timber725 Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 How is the reception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I thought of doing this but decided against it since I like to listen to a Christian radio station which is very hard to pull in at 91.9 FM. Figured the shark fin would never be able to play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62Lincoln Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I found this one, but I don't know if it's good/bad/ugly, only that they claim to match our paint colors: http://www.juicedhybrid.com/2013-2014-Ford-C-Max-Shark-Fin-Antenna-p/cmax-sharkfin-mark-ii.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't listen to radio so can't say how the reception compares to the whip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaDadMiami Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I can only tell you that I always remove my antenna when going through the car wash, and I have listed to both Sirius and FM without any issue, and that was while inside the building, running through the wash. So, I am willing to bet that, with such a device, there would not be any substantial loss in ability to receive stations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wab Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Thanks for the real world info. I've been thinking about one, but on our multiple summer trips across w tx and nm we get no fm and poor am for A LOT of miles.Shark Fin just moved up on my wish list, plus it looks a lot like a gas pod. wab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
