Quadratech had a mount ( I don’t see it this morning) it was shaped like the mopar mount. However, after this install and even before the first snow, my bolts are rusting! It was half the price of the mopar mount ($77 at the time) but you get what you pay for... and this morning I don’t see it on their site. I hope to call this week and let them know.
Finally found a picture! You can see the gasket circled, this is on the passenger side top right behind the glove box. You also see the black wires, a negative to the battery and the antenna.
If you have the accessory switches, on the passenger side you have four wires for the switches and two extra lines (the manual has more info). One is always hot and the second is hot on ignition. I connected mine to switch that’s hot when the truck is on.
Some lessons learned from me... For the front fender mounts only, I learned that I was not comfortable with a heavy 3 foot fiberglass antenna and a light duty or heavy duty spring. Just too much weight and a big stick bouncing around. So, even though the firestik was easy to tune, it needed a spring, and was just too heavy for me. I also tried the Firefly, which was still too heavy and stiff for me - it still required a light duty spring... It also could be easily tuned. Both the 3 foot firestik and the 3 foot firefly required lengthening of the antenna to tune to the fender mount. For me the four foot adjustable Wilson 305-4FD Silver Load Series 4' CB Antenna Whip was by far the best. Super flexible, can be bent into a U, no spring required, very light, and an added bonus, it has to be shortened to be tuned to the fender mount. So, as I said in my previous post, I threw away the adjustment extension and grinded down past the adjustment screw to get the great 1.1 tune on all channels. Reception and transmission has been fantastic and it's shorter than 4 feet and there is no spring required. It also feels to be the right weight and flexibility for the fender mount location.
That stainless steel bracket above at 14 GA. is a good deal. I am builing my own at 16 GA. now (same style) and if that does nto work I will try to build a cowl mount I found today on a VHF radio website.
Here is a pic of the three I rejected - from heaviest to light three footers - Firestik, FireFly, unadjustable flexible antenna that came with the Quadratec kit. They are all roughly the same height. The FireFly still has the light spring on it. The unadjustable one that came with the quadratec kit was too short to tune to the lower channels, but, otherwise it was perfect for lightness and flexility. The SWR was only good for the high channels, so, it was worthless. The mounted pics are with the 4' Wilson. Like I already mentioned I got the SWR tuned perfect by grinding it down past the adjustment screw. You can also see how flexible it is, no heavy spring needed. For my mount, I cut the extra ground wire on the Wilson and tucked the cut wire under the plastic cover so you cannot see it. The Firestik and the Firefly do not bend at all and both need a spring, but, they you can tune the SWR easily by lengthening them 1/4 inch or so using the adjustment screws. Here is a link on Amazon for the Wilson.
