2.3 Mounting and Connecting the Antennas
A variety of brackets are available. To attach the antennas to the
standard brackets, align the threaded mounting hole on the antenna
with the threaded post of the front antenna bracket and on the rear
antenna bracket the threaded knob with the slot on the L-brace. Then
screw the post or knob into the threaded mounting hole.

When mounting the front antenna bracket to the windshield use the
following bullet points to help in determining the proper location.
• Make sure that you Do Not mount the antenna in the
deployment path of the air bag or where it will obstruct the
driver's vision.
• Choose a location so that the antenna will be completely below
the tinted area of the windshield.
• Test the antenna location for good performance and for any fan
interference.
Once the considerations listed above have been observed, make sure
that the windshield glass is properly cleaned and prepared. Make
sure the suction cup is placed on the windshield so that the release
button is easy to get to if you should need to release the suction cup.
