Hey folks! Does anyone know if the shark fin for the 4th gen is just satellite radio? (Not talking about the three fin fancy towing one just the normal fin)
I’m looking to put a lightweight camper shell on the back — maybe around Aug/Sep — and if I can shave an inch or two off the overall height and reduce that cabover gap by removing the shark fin and putting an auxiliary satellite radio antenna on the hood… that would be amazing. I’m just worried about if there are other important things in there that could get messed up with a potential delete.
alternatively is anyone with a 3D printer game to explore an idea of maybe printing a stubbier replacement fin to shrink the height? Or know of any shops that are considering manufacturing one? I sadly don’t have a printer of my own — though that might not stop me from opening blender and fiddling around when the time comes.
