Antennas are ugly. Shave the antenna and relocate the antenna-wire along with the antenna sideways behind the dash. Just a suggestion.

Here is your Shorty antenna. Now this is according to a friend that said that the 4th gen antenna is the same as the 3rd and well to me it looks the same so i got to agree. also i just saw that it said it well at the bottom to "This antenna will actually fit any GM car or truck from 1982 through 2004 that has a fixed antenna."

Use an antenna from a 03-Present Vibe and mount it on the roof near the rear hatch..................

Bad advice. Antennas are upright for a reason. If they could be horizontal, they would do so at the transmitter, which would be easier.
