A bit pricey!
This did the job, but with a little modification. You have to ruin the finish to install your antenna properly. It would have been nice if the wrinkle paint finish design had been left off of the connection for the antenna and mount allowing proper grounding. Also, the hole size did not accommodate my Midland 6DB gain antenna (MXTA26) without modifying the nylon insert of the antenna. This was no small task without a lathe. I also needed to include two washers to offset the mount to exactly between the tire in the door, making it so the antenna would not rub on the door or the tire.
Thanks for the honest review, Nate. These are designed primarily for CB antennas, so as you found, they have a 1/2" hole for the antenna mount and tight clearance between the gate and tire. There are 1/2" NMO mounts available, however. We assume you had a 5/8" NMO mount? We apologize for the hassle, if we can help any further, please reach out: https://www.jcroffroad.com/CTUS.html
