That's a very good looking 02. I thought you had a typo and it was an 06+ till I saw the headlight/taillight conversion.

When you said "shaved antenna", what do you mean? From your video, the antenna port in the back has been removed (looks nice BTW). So I would have to guess that you are running purely on the antenna in the windshield now?

"Shaved" is an old hot rodder term. When you remove an antenna, a door handle, hood or trunk emblem and fill in the voids it is shaved. You can also shave the gas cap or filler door as it has come to be known.
