Default antenna recommendations

Yes, completely invisible on the inside of the cab. Cable goes
between headliner and roof, then down inside door post or whatever to
get to your radio.

so It is imvisable form inside the cab right? (goes between the
headliner and the roof?)

Where can I find one of those antennas and how far do they stick up?

Very easy. You do have to release the side of the headliner. Use a
Unibit to drill the hole, and put a metal plate or something similar
under it to prevent drilling into the headliner. In my case, the
Jeep had an overhead console. I took that down and could see the roof
where I wanted the hole to be. The Larsen mount is designed to be
used between a headliner and the roof. I like the ones that use a
3/4" hole, but there is one that uses a smaller hole. When you get
ready to sell the truck, just put a Larsen hole plug in the hole.
Practically invisible.
