Email Chris at b18c510@hotmail.com and tell him you're interested in purchasing a kit. I bought mine from him way back when and I don't know if he's still selling them, but he's a local guy, good seller. Tell him I mentioned it.

yea u have to have a mounting kit. Its really easy, I just installed mine yesterday. If you listen to the radio alot and live near a woody area then i wouldnt get this antenna. I get poor reception but i dont listen to the radio that often.

This is how the S2000 kit looks from the factory. This is Honda Part # 623620
Here it is after install was completed.
This is a more expensive way to get the S2000 antenna on your Integra, however I do not have any of the reception problems often reported by home depot kit users.
there were some modifications I had to do on the mounting. Email me for instructions.

Good luck

Part was expensive! $92.00.
The factory top mount needs to be modified. The sleave that slides through the body hole is too large in diameter to fit a standard integra antenna hole. I shaved the sleave off, and removed the factory collar (on the internal part of the unit, this required use of a phillips head screwdriver, very simple) I then mounted the unit, but I was unhappy. The fit was too loose.
I remedied that by putting some rubber sink washers around the threaded part of the internal base unit. when I cranked down the antenna mount, the washers created a nice, and snug mounting.
I am using the factory head unit (results may very depending on your particular head unit), and the area I live in is pretty flat. Reception is fine, unless I am between too many tall buildings, but that was a problem I had with the origional antenna.
S2K antenna looks cool IMO. I prefer CD's to radio, so reception isn't that important anyway.
