Hey Tex,

I have the 9" one of these:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Flamed-Billet-Antenna-Hummer-H2-2004-2005-2006_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33639QQihZ019QQite mZ8025894888QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V

Really good reception, AND IT'S BLING

I didn't buy it on e-Bay though, so I can't comment on this seller? I'll try to find where I got mine and post L8R

I don't see how hard it could be to move the antenna to it's original 03 position. Best spot for it.

That's one of the first things I'm going to do when I trade in for the H2 Alpha.

Can't you set the limit switch nearest the garage door motor a little further back to get the door to open fully? I had the same problem and just fixed the door.

I did, changed the limit switch, as well as playing around with the door. I have about 3" to clear the door, but that antenna still hits. Its not the end of the world, but I would also like to have a bit more bling....call me crazy

Had to do that with my first garage. Neighbors couldn't believe it when they would first see me backing that truck in.
