I have completed this excellent mod. Thanks to Weeeeee! Perfect fit and easy to do. No crease in headliner. I did swap the innards from the ridiculous sharkfin version to the low-profile replacement version. The connectors did not match, replacement was gray, original was blue. This may be better option anyway, I now know the antenna is the exact same as OEM, because it is the same! The antenna is about 7/8"/24mm in height, big difference. The photo/dirt line also shows the difference in footprint size.

Beg pardon part #86960-02050 is 150$ , however part# 86960-02040 which looks like same part is 57$ can anyone confirm these could be same part ? Not sure if the 02050 is whole piece or if #02040 is just the pod with connector ?

I picked mine up used off Ebay. Didn't have a part number, just listed as a 2010/2011 Corollo XM antenna. Think it was listed at $75, I offered $45, he countered at $55.

I looked up the paint codes, the 2010 Corolla had a Barcelona Red as well so the color did match mine.

What are listed as 2011 antenna's look similar, but have a white connector instead of the blue connector on the 2010.


Here are a few I located on Ebay that look like they would work :

2010 Toyota Camry Corolla Radio XM Satellite Antenna Blue 8T7 09 10 11 12 13 | eBay

2009 2010 Toyota Corolla Camry Satellite Roof Antenna Maroon | eBay


2010 Toyota Corolla Roof Shark Antenna 1G3 A111 09 10 11 12 13 | eBay


2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Toyota Corolla Roof Antenna Silver Scuffs See Pics | eBay

09 2009 Toyota Corolla Roof Mounted Radio Antenna LKQ | eBay

Not stupid at all. I thought about doing that, and the best way that I would go about it and decided I just didn't want to risk water infiltration. What to use? Epoxy? Silicone? What plastic? Using the smaller shell is reassuring, one less thing I have to keep an eye on. But if one were to cut the fin, the outcome could be good and may be dependable. Nice flat cut trimmed neatly to the edge, why not? Do it and post up!

How high off the roof?...maybe an inch?. The components don't look like they stick up very high.

The replacement is about 7/8in./24mm total height from the roof. It could be made less high, but why? How about play it safe and go 3/4in? You will know what to do when you remove your antenna and can then take measurements. Measure twice before....

All the links I posted were used, I think most of them had an option to Make Offer, so can always try for a lower price.
