I will be re-fitting my HF set up on the new Prado soon and I have been looking for anyone with either a front mount or rear set up. On my last vehicle I had the antenna mounted to the rear of the roof rack and got good results. I looked at the wheel-on-door Kaymar bracket, but they haven't got anything for the small form factor the 3040 provides. I feel the antenna will be too low on the rear door. Codan tend to promote putting them on the bull bar, looking at their material, but one incident with an animal and you're done!
I did catch sight of a Prado in Adelaide the other day who had extended the mount to be higher up the rear door, but I was going the other way and didn't get a good look. Suspect it was a homer. Ideally the base of the whip should be about level with the roof line.
All advice welcome.
