Rear Antenna Mounts for all FJ80s

[yodaTEQ]

Frank, I PM'ed you Friday about a PS one if you have any left.

Yes I have a few left. Check your PM inbox - Sent you a message.

How far apart are the mounting holes? Can someone measure for me?

 

[wierdbeard]

Do you have any of these left?

Here is my mount application. Hi-Q Antennas 4inch 10m - 160m screwdriver antenna. I had to slightly modify the mount to accept the antenna base. Now I need to figure out an upper support to the antenna from the lower gas strut mount.
I think it would be fine on its own, but I want to just be sure.

I would recommend an industrial pipe hanger tied into your roof rack and attached to the larger diameter portion of your antenna.

If you have any driver side left Id like one. I want to get my antenna off the front fender.

Thanks for posting.

All sold out!
Thanks for all the support on this project. It's been lots of fun and exciting to see this product develop.

I'm starting a new list for the next batch.
Let me know if you're interested in a driver side, passenger side or both.

Thanks
Frank

 

[wierdbeard]

can you please add me to the list for both sides.

 

[Bluetribal]

Got mine in the mail today, installing now but going to have to remover the catch piece.

 

[JOHNWOHN]

Thanks Frank. Got mine in the mail yesterday.

 

[Fireguy]

Count me in for two this time, damnit missed out on the last run.

 

[Bluetribal]

shakotankei you are quick. You didn't even give me time to be the first to debut the back up lights idea

Check them out installed and tell me what do you guys think?

So Frank, where did you tap into for power and do these light come with a switch like aftermarket fog lights? If not then I am thinking of going with a switch like THIS. I want mine purely as a camp light.

What's the update in these. I'd love to have one for each side.

After the suggestions from the group I added the catch piece to the bracket. So now you simply remove the plastic/rubber insert and place it into the bracket.

I will have more pics and final pricing by Monday. Next week I will cut them out and start a new list.

Thanks for your patience

Thats good to hear. I tried removing and running without it and the hatch would rattle a bit. I still have not had a chance to modify the old ones yet but plan to do so.

Same here. Great work Frank!

Frank,
Please add me to your list for a "new & improved" pair (L & R) please. Although, I did not have a chance to install your original design yet. I know that I'll prefer the "no rattle version" better.
Thanks!

I actually kept mine on. No problems for me.

 

[wierdbeard]

any updates on these? i'd really like to get a pair.
