Looking for fender antenna mount for gmrs

[Bearded Hobbit]

Looking for a fender mount for my gmrs antenna. I see plenty of hood mounts, but would prefer a bolt on passenger side mount. And yes, before ppl jump in, I know top of cab is best.

You might look at the mounts on amazon for the ditch lights, maybe they can be modified or inspire for the bracket you are looking for to mount your antenna, back when I ran a CB Antenna, my Grandpa made a mount with 2 90-degree bends that allowed it to go between the hood and the fender.....Good Luck on your project, please post info if you come up with something!

Ok yes this is what I had in mind. It looks like you had to remove that plastic cover. Are you able to replace it on top? And was the oem screw long enough to reuse to attach bracket? Thanks.

I haven't reattached them. I believe they'll go on.

The screw is long enough.

How do you like the Compactenna? been thinking about getting one of the tri-bands

If you have a rack, several companies make mounts that will attach to the rack.

Another one attaches by the tailgate

How would one bring the coax into the cabin?

This isn't my area of expertise but maybe route the coax down through the openings in the bed, go under the truck, and then back up into the cabin somewhere near the glovebox/center console?
