Surely someone's done it locally?
Many thanks!

Struan did you look at the one Lourens suggested on the FB Ozzie owners group ??

I just used a stedi mount. It's a 60mm appx diameter bar. Most antennas need a 16mm hole.

I obviously don't spend as much time trolling the internet as you do.

Yes the Repco one gives about 2mm clearance to the bonnet - with 4WD flex it might gouge the panel. But the bracket could be modified to remove some metal and give a little more clearance.
