Great poll you got there.

I hate thieves and normally take my antenna off in areas populated by high school and college kids.

I loctited mine on. This was after my friend told me he jacked one for his tC. Apparently, a lot of cars fit our antennas i.e. celica, tC.

They're very inexpensive so not a big deal if you should have to replace. The thing that would worry me is if someone tried to break it off and damaged the car in the process. Antennas of all shapes and sizes seem to attract acts of vandalism.

put some jb weld on the threads of the antenna and then screw it on, it will not come off anytime soon. Oh just a simple warning, dont use too much or else the jb weld will come out the bottom of the antenna which looks kinda crappy. We jb welded the antenna onto my buddy's chevy pickup cuz his got stolen once. Never had the problem again.
