I've got a 2000 protege dx... two times now i've seen proteges with antennas that seem to be retracted or something where as mine is always way up out there. I don't know what year they were but they were newer than mine because they had the new style headlights. Do the new proteges have a retracting antenna or is it just shorter?

Mr. Protege

My LX 2002's antenna retracts all the way.

i have a 99 es, and you can push the antenna into the socket to retract it. Horrible reception when you do, but great for car washes.

the guy at mpsport.com sells billet shorty antennas for ours cars, im not sure if they fit all but I knw they do on the p5 and he has em in billet aluminum black and has 2-3 different lengths.

They are like 15-18 a piece.
Took like 2 months for mine to ship but it was going from canada to Arizona and I heard packages going through the border take alot of extra time.

I sell them to fit the Pro5 and I can get the bases for the antennas as well so you sedan guys can do the conversions. Let me know by PM or email...
