Installation

This antenna can be mounted anywhere on the vehicle.

The oblong X-mount is especially suited for mounting on the often very narrow strip on the rear wing between the trunk lid and the side of the car.

Mounting can take place exclusively with access frome the outside when drilling an 18 mm dia. hole. Mounting can take place from the inside by drilling a 14 mm dia. hole. When mounting in a 14 mm dia. hole, remove the bottom plastic ring of the packing gasket with a sharp cutter.

When cleaning the car in car-washing machines, remove the whip using a spanner, size 9 mm. After wash, refit the whip and tighten it lightly with the spanner.

As the mount is internally equipped with a bendable section, the antenna can always be adjusted to an upright position independent of the tilt angle of the installation spot (up to 30° tilt).
