Ok, i can't remember right now if some one already asnwered this.. but last time i checked it was kind of unclear...

I have an 03 GTS which comes with the gay auto antenna =\

I was wonderin if the s2k antenna fit the auto... and IF they do, what parts do i need? i think some one mentioned something about the base mount? or, does some one know what the part is EXACTLY called? Some pictures would sure help right about now. Thanks guys, always could count on you... thumbsup

DontMessWithKram: you could get a 00-02 antenna and just take the auto out
this danielx: hmmm... if i do that, then can't i just swap that out for the s2k antenna...?
DontMessWithKram: ya, but you have to get the base
DontMessWithKram: because you cant just take out the antenna, there is nothing to screw it into
DontMessWithKram: you would have to swap out the entire unit

more replies pls smile

commonly, the swap is a 1 minute mod for the celicas with the manual antennas. but if you have the auto, you NEED to get the replacement base, or else it wont be functional.

not sure what the base costs, but the antenna itself costs ~15. there are links floating around here, just do a search. i got mine off another celica owner that i met on the street. sold me an extra one that he had sitting in his trunk for 8 bux. cheers i popped off my old on threw that in the trunk, and popped on the new one. 1 minute.

you need #26 and #27 to be able to install Honda's S2000 antenna on your 2003 Toyota Celica as a replacement for the factory standard power antenna.

if you want to make it functional, than you need to also purchase #24 grin

the s2k does not work with the 03 GTS. It has an automatic antenna on both manual and auto trannys. the 03 GT's have manual antennas and CAN be replaced.
Do not go through to take out the automatic one...why waste time and do that...

well for one thing, if someone bends your auto antenna, you're screwed and gonna wind up having to replace it anyway.

for one thing...its only up when you have the radio on and are driving. I listen to CD's, the radio sucks so the antenna is never up. And if someone bent it while parked and with the radio on that is just stupid so I would beat the hell out of them.

No see, i'm in a diff position, I just had my system installed... LCD screen, dvd player, subs, the works... but the thing is, everytime i turn on my audio now, that dam lightening rod shoots its ugly ass ALLLLLLLL the way up... i don't need that... hell, i dont even need the dam antenna, i rarely if ever listen to the radio... i'd rather lose my radio and get rid of the antenna than havin radio and havin that lightenin rod... thumbsdown

Anyways, from what people have been sayin, it IS possible to replace the 03 auto antenna w/ the s2k antenna... ARE YOU SURE THAT IT'S NOT possible?

for the dude with the custom sound system and the auto antenna, why not throw a switch on the power line of the antenna and raise it only when you need it???? thumbsup

Hey, not a bad idea... but sounds liek a custom job that'll probably run higher than the s2k antenna which costs only about $25 (hopefully comes with the base poke )

Thanks for the idea man! thumbsup

00-02 models of ALL celica's have a manual antenna. The S2k fits ALL of them...it is the 03 that have this new power antenna that would require a lot of stupid crap to put a S2k on it.

I have an 03, and its only the celicas GT or GTS with the new JBL sound system. I don't have that system so I don't have that problem.

We seem to be agreeing, yet you seem to point crazy at me... thumbsdown

i KNOW the gts has 8 speakers, I have one for God sakes, no one here said it didn't... futhermore i NEVER SAID ANYTHING bout a GT. Might wanna do a little reading before you post something off topic huh guy? rolleyes

diversirty reception means it gets reception from diverse places, how simple can it get for you. You posted earlier on a 03 GTS WITHOUT AN AUTOMATIC antenna... how do you explain that? bs Don't post dumb things, it makes an ass out of you and your credibility. You should also know, toyota.com is not very accurate for some parts... it lists the 03 gts as a 5-speed... thumbsdown

umm the crazy thing was for diversity reception.. not directed at you. If you re-read my post you will see it says "whatever that means." You seriously need to take a chill pill. If you read the entire thread you would know there was a discussion about the auto antenna being on a gt or gts or both.. perhaps YOU should find out what you are talking about before you go running your mouth. I wasn't saying shit against you earlier, but now I will.

Hmmm, well, let's see who started the thread? well well well, look who it is, it's me. I will "chill" because i was in a tense mood earlier in the day and i happen to have read your post, anyways though... i would still like to see evidence of your "2003 GTS w/o an auto atenna"... thumbsdown
