Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to mount an HF antenna which is likely to be an
8.5' SS whip on my '04 Honda Accord. The mount doesn't necessarily need to be
grounded as I have my own bag of tricks concerning that. Mostly I want
something that is somewhat strong AND be something that requires a minimum (ideally
zero) of modification to the vehicle. My main focus is to mount the antenna
somewhere around the rear of the car, preferably on or very near to the trunk
lid. The registration plate threaded inserts would have been a good starting
point, but they don't appear to have the necessary strength because of the way
they're attached to the trunk lid. I loath the idea of crawling under the
car in my snowy driveway to bolt something to the underneath, so that will be
reserved as my last resort. Take a look at any of these vehicles that you
might be around in parking lots, or perhaps even your own if you have one. Thanks!
