Anyone know where i can get a antenna mount that sticks to the back bumper of the side like above the gas hatch? Magnetic would be preferable but any responses will help!
i have my screwed into the plastic as well however i have a old liscense plate and a piece of wood on the other side. and i have a 10ft whip with a sping and never have i had to tighten the bolts or anything on it.
Id say the plasic on the 06 is stronger vs the Gen 1.. Gen 2 has some good bends to give strength... The Gen 1 plast on the back is very thin.. And the one I seen torn off.. had metal on the back to help
I was going to do like dave did, but I dont have the balls to drill into my X. I have a wilson 1000 on the roof with a magnet mount and I couldnt be happier with it.
The problem w/ mounting to plastic is the grounding. Most metal mounted ones allow you to use the metal of the vehicle as the ground, otherwise you have to run an additional wire. There are several mag mount bases that will handle a 3' firestix and some that will hanlde a 6' Penatrator. Depends on the look you want. As he said Truck stops and radio repair shops are your best places to look. Radio shack seems to be pulling back on CB gear. I just saw who old this thread was. Days late and dollars short.
