There is a good chance I've seen some real short rubber ones that bend and are probably only 12" high

I've read on here of a few guys who have cut off a few inches off the tip of the antenna with out affecting reception. Could be a cheap solution.

I was having the same problem

I was having the same problem, I cut a 1/2 inch off and everything is fine and you can't tell at all. In my openion the short rubber ones look silly.
