    Thanks. Great product. I am going to mount the sticker on my toolbox but it has been raining to much to do anything with it.

    Here is where I ran my wire. Just above the tail light there was a gap where I could run the cable. I undid the taillight and dropped the cable below the bumper and ran it along the frame.

    I picked up a batch today. Unfortunately, they messed up and they are 3/16" and don't work how I'd like. They do fit fit but only one at a time and there is still some rubbing on tailgate upon closing and opening of it.

    Good news is my hood hinge brackets are available for purchase. :D

    What is the antenna mounting hole diameter? I have been looking for a way to mount some rear facing LED lights (Rigid D-Series, etc.) that are up high and not on the bumper. These look like they would work well for this application, and would not interfere with a cap, tonneau cover or bed rack.

    Currently planning a CB and police scanner setup for my X-Runner. I have a similar setup in the car and very fun and interesting to use during long road trips. Most important thing is to make sure highway patrol doesn't call out a description of my car down the road!

    I have all the radio plumbing ordered this week for a 1/2 hole, but was curious to know how long of a cable was everyone using from the tail light to the cab, and where are you guys entering the cab at? Using a drain hole? Following factory wiring? Pics if possible ;).

    I would like to order a tailgate (drivers side) Tacoma mount but I don't want one of these "I picked up a batch today. Unfortunately, they messed up and they are 3/16" and don't work how I'd like. They do fit fit but only one at a time and there is still some rubbing on tailgate upon closing and opening of it."

    So I am seeking assurance that the CB antenna mount being shipped will not rub my tailgate if I was to place an order.

    Thank you for your effort,
    Alan

    I just wanted to let you know how mine is holding up. It has done great with a 3' fiberglass antenna with no spring it flexes a little bit but it does not bend. I have to drive on the interstate with 50+ mph headwinds sometimes here in Wyoming and when I look in the mirror the antenna is moving but not the mount. GREAT product.
