Have the antenna and coax just need someone who knows how to r&R the

To get a proper weather tight NMO mount,
you're gonna need a Greenlee hole cutter.-

Remove the dome light. Try to fish the RG174U co-ax through the same
place the dome light wire goes. There's usually some kind of channel.
Drill your hole straight up from the dome light.


Yes I know about the "channel" but I don't own a greenly hole punch.
just some hole saws and I am afraid they wont make a clean enough hole
for a good seal.
