okay, ima get the s2000 antenna... but if i remember correctly from a while back when this conversion was "hot"... wasn't there a kit that you had to buy? i think someone use to sell it... or what parts do i need to put this thing together thanks

 

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.

 

i thought you could just buy it and stick it on there...is this a mounting kit that's required?

 

Oh yes, it just doesn't screw in. Remember, it's not made for an Integra, it's made for an S2000. A little bit of PVC piping, some washers, a long bolt, and custom cable will do the trick though. E-mail the address above like I said and he'll be able to shed more light on the subject.

 

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.

how is the fit on that part? does it just drop right in? i made my own, and about a month later, the antenna fell thru the hole into my quarter panel. dont ask me how, the reception was fine on it. how much did that part cost you?

 

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.
