Default Fiberglass roof on FJ-40

Howdy Y'all:

I have a fiberglass roof on my Landcruiser, and I was wondering if I can use a halfwave roof mounted antenna?
For some reason, I think since the halfwave is end loaded, that it will not work on my fiberglass roof, and that
it uses a steel roof as part of the match. Am I wrong here? The only other thing I can think of is some kind of
stainless steel J pole on a mount coming off the back. And what about a dual band that will work on fiberglass?
Anybody work with this problem before?
