Helo everyone, I have a sahara bar on my 120 prado and wondering where else people have mounted there aerials other than the outside edge, or where on the back of the vehicle can you mount them where they will be practical.
thanks Peter

Dunno much about positions bu t they should be kept a metre or so apart.
Actually I have a combination UHF/CB antenna with a splitter system that I use on my UHF/CB in a single unit "Uniden". It seems to work OK and saves a spot on the bull bar

How you thought about Glass mount, not as good as the others, or Z bracket on the bonnet

My ARB Sahara bar (admittedly an older one on a 100 Series) has a mounting point on both sides -
well on the flat part in front of the headlight that is.

I've never needed to know ;-)

"Z" brackets seem like your most obvious option, unless you only use radios out of town if you are in a city, what about magnetic base & lead, lots of antenna options for UHF.......
Cheers
