I just cut mine down so it's even with the roof line: Yank the stock ant. rod out of the nut that screws into the car mount ( might need a visegrip to break it loose), cut off how every many inches you want, put in a drop of JB weld or soider and push the rod back into the nut.

I've got a BitViper antenna myself and I didn't notice any drop in reception. For a while I wasn't running an antenna at all and I never really had issues.

obviously, we know that BitViper's shorty antenna works great, but we're trying to see what's the cheapest antenna with the best reception. One person mentioned soldering after trimming the 28'' mast. I'll most likely end up purchasing the GM antenna off of eBay
