Can you recommend a place online to buy it?

Here in PR the dealer is asking for $70.00, a bit too much.

Any oem replacement? Will the one from a sentra fit?

Help this noobie please.

They stole all the antenna, with the base? or they just unscrew the antenna?

Also, do you have XM radio? Because the base of the antenna include the receiver for the XM radio, so you can't buy the "shark style" antenna.

They work but I think you can suffer some reduction in performance, probably won't be as good as stock.

I'd recommend always checking out our main FAQ/inedex at the top of the Rogue forum, most questions have already been answered.

Specifically, here is a link to great Nissan web site, and the anttenna is listed here:

Almost too good to be true... so no good at the end:Quote »Noted: This is a dummy antenna. It is for looks only. It has no radio reception function.[/quote]And it exists only in 3 colors: white, silver and black.

If you want a true shark fin antenna, you still have this one: http://www.visualgarage.com/home.html

But it is $69USD.

Good idea only if you never go in the automatic car wash
