Made it work
My teen daughter has a 2016 Hyundai Elantra, think base model maybe the one above that. I didn't realize this cover easily coming off on Hyundais was a thing, until I had to search for the replacement. Firstly, if you are a new Hyundai owner, I'd recommend avoiding automatic car washes. But, if you're here reading this, it's probably too late.Two, if you are looking for this part, be sure you measure and look closely at the inside of your antenna. There's several different variations for them apparently.The type in our vehicle, that square-computer chip thing in the middle is twisted so it looks more like a diamond shape. Most of the parts I've seen have it look like a square shape. Some have another square above that, and some have a space for a gps tracker which is a big green tail type thing sticking out of the bottom. The part number for the one I needed, the diamond type shape, is 96210-3x100. And, it's about impossible to find, unless you buy the whole antenna assembly which is what the part number is for I realized, and I've seen anywhere for 80.-200.+ dollars. And, to do that, you need to remove the headliner, and replace the whole antenna assembly from inside the vehicle. And I really don't want to spend that much money for just the plastic piece on the outside that is very likely to fly off again at some point in time. Sorry for the novel, just trying to help out anyone in the same boat.With a really rainy week coming up, I went ahead and ordered this one. Dimensions seemed to fit and I was hoping I could modify it a bit to make it work. I gut the inside. I cut out the screw parts, which I kind of regretted after the fact. So be sure to check the screw parts on your vehicle. They will break off differently and may work out ok for your situation. I ended up having to cut the ones on the vehicle as well to get the cover to fit on more secure. Both easily cut off with small wire cutters I had. I then used some JB Weld to secure it to the car. The fin cover itself looks fine. The JB Weld was an absolute mess, and you can see how messy it is all over the cover. My daughter was ticked, told her oh well do it yourself next time and do better :) It should scrape off with a razor blade. It's been a couple weeks now, and it's staying on and secured. But it isn't seated completely, when I pushed it down while waiting for the weld to cure, one side would pop up a bit. So my next step is to try some black flex seal tape to hopefully fill in the small gap on the side and further secure it and protect it from the elements. So overall, this worked fine for me. None of the issues I've experienced were due to this part here. I'd recommend it, you can probably make it work, just may have to get creative with it.

DOES NOT FIT!
The product had the AmazonConfirmedFit banner, which is why I felt confident it would be a perfect replacement for the cover that broke off my Sorento. Unfortunately, I did not make a serious effort to install it until after the return window had closed. I thought I might be able to modify it, but it does not even have the same "footprint" as the original. Don't waste your money and time with this. I will purchase an exact fit Kia part.

Easy upgrade that looks great!
bought this shark fin antenna cover for my car and I’m really impressed! It was super easy to install—just peel and stick, and it fits snugly. The black finish gives the car a sleeker, more modern look. I was a bit worried it might affect signal reception, both radio and GPS both work perfectly. It feels durable and well-made, not cheap or flimsy. Definitely a nice little upgrade for the price. Great value if you want a simple way to improve your car’s style without spending much.

Junk.
Horrible piece of junk that doesn't work. Hardly picked up any signal at all. Attaches to the car with some poor quality and ill fitting double sided tape. At highway speeds, it's going to blow off your car and hit something. Stay away.

Okay for now
I have a 2016 Hyundai Sonata.Thank god for the other persons review on here. They said in order for it to fit you’d have to remove the bottom part. You can unscrew it or just rip it off like I did lol. It’s plastic and easy to manipulate.Once I removed that I was able to place it over the green memory board that was sticking up. I bought some sealant to basically glue it on. I had to weigh the antenna cap down until the sealant completely dried. I checked it this morning and it’s pretty solid now. So now I have an antenna cap back on and it solved my problem.These antenna caps are hard to come by for some reason so I am happy I was able to make it work. I gave only 4 starts though because I had to remove some parts of the cap for it to actually fit. But if you have the same car as me and don’t want to spend 100- $300 just to replace an antenna cap then get this thing. The color also matches pretty good to my silver car. Make sure to use a sealant to secure this thing. You’ll want a sealant because it will keep water and debris from seeping through. I’m sure there are other ways to secure it down, but I found that this was the best way for me. The sealant I bought was from Amazon and it was like $5.Praying this thing stays on and protects the memory board underneath it.

Gotta use jb weld and cut to fit.
Does not fit all cars it says. May have to cut into seal and use jb weld.

Does not fit a 2017 Kia Sorento SXL
Thought I could modify to make this fit as a temporary cover until I can bring the car in for a repair but it is not tall enough or wide enough. It’s also fairly cheaply made (which is what I expected) but It likely wont last as long as the pricey OEM replacement.

Meh.
Does not fit a 2017 Ford Explorer XLT. Oddly, the plastic cover ripped off during a drive thru car wash. The antenna functions normally, no problems. But, being exposed may eventually cause problems. I needed a cover only option. This one does not fit over the existing footprint so I had to modify it a little and use a butt load of glue. I took the rubber seal off, unscrewed the three screws to release the plastic base piece, reinstalled the rubber gasket and placed it as best I could over the existing antenna.Glue, glue, and more glue. Took it on a test drive up to 60 MPH, checked it, it was still in place and had not budged. Not sure how long this will last but I’ll take what I can get for $9.99. Why don’t car companies make the plastic covers for these things? Looks a little messy as the glue dries, but it will clean up later.
