Default S2000 Antenna (searched..)

Well, it just so happens that my antenna decided to completely disconnect itself at half-mast and get jammed so well i can't even push the thing back down. So.. instead of rectracting like it should im stuck with a freakin' silver light saber coming out of my cars ***....

And here is where my question lies.. i've heard of people [and seen] replacing the stock integra retractable antenna with an S2000 antenna that is just the single mast.

Has anyone personally done this? If so, how dificult? and is it a direct fit? (i.e. no trimming or cutting the product?) and where can i get one?

Thanks in advance!!

You can buy the rods on ebay. I was planning on doing this also. Do you need the whole antenna for this or just the rod I wonder?

theft proof? well its bolted down, so a thief would have to open your trunk and unbolt it.
