ANTENNA MOUNT FOR HILUX / FORTUNER 2015+
Please refrain from drilling holes in your cherished Hilux or Fortuner to install a radio antenna. Instead, consider this convenient bracket that can be effortlessly secured beneath the bonnet using the existing hinge bolts—no need for drilling or cutting, ensuring a tidy and hassle-free installation. It's easy to install and equally easy to remove.
Here are the steps to follow, as illustrated in the provided pictures:
- Loosen the two bolts that connect the bonnet to the bonnet hinge on the left side using a 12mm socket.
- Have a friend support the bonnet and remove the lower bolt.
- Slide the antenna bracket between the remaining bolt and the bonnet hinge.
- Reattach the lower bolt through the available hole in the antenna bracket.
- Adjust the antenna bracket from left to right to ensure a perfect fit and then tighten the bolts—your installation is complete!
This bracket is designed to be positioned in a way that clears the wipers, windscreen, and associated molding when the bonnet is either open or closed. It's constructed from 304 grade stainless steel, ensuring a long-lasting service life. The bracket is precision-cut using laser technology and CNC folding, with rounded edges and a matte black powder coating finish.
Manufactured in South Africa by "It's A STEEL," please note that an antenna bracket for the Ford Ranger is currently in development and will be available soon.
