    I'm interested in this mount. Is anyone running a 4 or 5 foot Firestik that could post a picture or 2 of it installed and how its working in this location. I feel like the location is ideal for me. I just want to make sure I plan it out right before I purchase.

    I have a 4' Wilson Flex in this location and have had no troubles what so ever. I Also bought an inline hinge(don't know what else you would call it) to be able to fold the antenna down for parking garages, car washes, etc.

    My recommendation is the Wilson Flex.

    Crappy pic, but you get this jist. It will look like everyone elses. Notice the hinge I was talking about. You slide the sleeve up and it folds right over.

    I definitely want one of these. Can't decide on driver side or passenger side though...

    None in stock at the moment they are cut just need to be formed and welded.

    Just ordered…hope this bad boy works. I have had the worst luck with the Wilson Lil Wil mag antennas. Been through 2 and can't get the tuning in spec. SWRs are way off so hopefully switching things up a bit will work. Looks good and thanks!
