Thanks for the detailed pics. Is that a swivel mount for the antenna?
Yes that is the swivel mount from Rhino Rack. I think it's called the folding Aerial Bracket. You can order it from Rhino Rack or Amazon.

Reviving this old thread. I have a Weboost that I love. I want to move it to my new JT. There are two things I am trying to figure out.

1. Where should I mount the antenna? Anyone run the antenna to the front bumper? Or is mounting it to the back bed better? (Back bed would place it higher...)
2. In your install you have the amp sitting behind the rear seat. How did you get power to the amp there?

Thanks! @Rey100

For the best coverage you want the antenna to be the highest point with no part of the body obstructing it. It needs a ground plane (albeit very small one) to work the best.

As for power, just run a wire from the battery through the clutch hole plug and back to whatever you want it mounted. I have mine under the passenger seat and hardwired to a dash switch (to keep my lighter plug free)
