CB antenna for JK jeep

I drilled first holes in my jeep. I had doubts about unstalling a proper rear gate adapter, and I am still considering a gate shelf, which would conflict with it. So, as a temporary measure I reused my old truck-mirror mount while I am figuring out the overall architecture.

It went pretty well except that the clearance with the center stop light is marginal, and since it's my ground I am running a risk to burn my transmitter with a short when wind flexes the whip. As a precaution, I put a bit of electrical tape on the stop light.

UPDATE: This mount is replaced with Arizona Rocky Road.
