There should be some aftermarket company that makes a decent setup, but which one? Autozone and oriellys don't list one on their website and Rockauto seems to only sell Acdelco.

Ebay is clogged with all manner of junk so I was hoping someone here just knew where to find what I'm looking for.
I'm assuming you are looking to replace a whip style antenna, correct? So you already have an installation hole in the fender to use?

A few months ago I bought this antenna from Amazon: Amazon.com: Pyramid 3800 AM/FM Antenna with... Amazon.com: Pyramid 3800 AM/FM Antenna with...
I've been very happy with it. It was a noticable improvement over what I had before, and the quality seems to be just fine. Not sure if there may not be something better out there, but I was pleased with the price and it is quite a bit less than the $35 you mentioned.
