Glass fenders and antenna?

[Flaltlander1414]

I'm am in the process of having a body shop install Boatec fenders. I didn't think about the antenna. What have you guys done for it. Did you mount one on the fender in the stock spot. Put the antenna somewhere else? I like the look of it not being there. Thanks for your input

reuse the factory support bracket on the stock fender- it will locate it for you. Disconnect it behind the glove box to pull it out. I always put them back on

I like this one.

I never listen to am or fm anyways. Pandora or sirius for me.

Sometimes I listen to Am for Football and Baseball games. Ill probably just leave the wires and bracket zip tied just in case I want to drill a hole in the future. It seems like you could access it through the side vent pretty easy.

I zip tied the oem antenna on the upper bracing inside the inner fender area. Very stealth and works as well as it did in the factory location.

Awesome. I will give that a try. Thanks

Anyone else have any success under the fender? Tried both Stubby and factory antenna under fender, get zero reception... I have the base bolted to the back of the SVT insert, running along frame. Should i look to ground that on the frame? I do have the antenna zipped to the frame, which i figured would help some...

Yes, i do have sirius, but hope to have my local fm/am news options... tho not at the expense of putting it back on top of the fender

What about something like this:
