Anyone that has mounted their UHF antenna on the attached bullbar? If so do you have pics to show location and what mounting bracket did you use?

I would either put it on the top of the bar using a antenna bracket from Jcar or get another bracket if that is going to be in your field of view and place the bracket under the bonnet adn have the antenna out the front of the bonnet or out to the side of the bonnet.

I have the same bar and put it in the centre of the top rail between my lights. Sure it's in your field of vision but after 5 mins of driving your brain seems to delete it. I used a GME stainless clamp mount. From memory the pipe diameter is 55mm. Cost $40ish Expensive but works great, doesn't shift around or move at all. Money well spent.

Hello, I recently put a GME antenna on the left mudgard of my 11 Defender directly opposite the factory radio antenna. It looks good and the connection reached easily.

Dont know about others but ARB sell weld on Antenna / Light mounts...

A carton saw mine welded on by local Crash shop (I was in a hurry)...
