    Antennas List, Prius 2nd Gen (2004-2009), March 2018

    I purchased a 2009 Prius around the end of January 2018.
    I've been reading through many of the PriusChat articles and thought that it would be good to collect some of the information I was looking for in one place for each subject.

    This is a list of antennas that fit the 2nd Gen, from the original to bigger for better reception and to smaller for aesthetics. None are tested or endorsed yet. My interest is getting better reception rather than looks, so I plan to get the 21" aftermarket version hoping to get better reception. Or does anyone know of an antenna to get even better reception than the 21" and made for the Prius?

    Pretty much any antenna with an M6x1.0 thread will work. I'm running a stubby antenna that I found on a VW at the junkyard.
