Easy drop-in replacement for my 15-year-old Comant that had the same bolt pattern. Definitely well built and high quality. The reception is quite good as well. Overall very pleased.

I can't comment on performance of the antenna yet. This product does not include screws..... I had to order screws from Spruce and am waiting for them to arrive.... You would think that for $ 174.00 that they would at least throw in a 4 screws...... Poor form, so far.
