The whip is compatible with all below mounts

Installation

This antenna should be mounted on the car roof to ensure best omnidirectional coverage. Mounting can take place exclusively with access from 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.
The MiniMag (abbreviated: MM) is a small, light-weight magnetic mount with a high attaching effect. A silicone layer applied to the contact surface protects the car roof and ensures maximum friction.
