So yea, thank you for the helpful information.. yea my mount that we have for the CB antenna we got a bracket that goes right on the inside without cutting a whole in the fender of the rig..
those will work as well. if you are going to use a gumball, I suggest you buy a 3" hole saw, cut out a piece of sheet metal with it out of an old door or hood or something and use it as a backer plate on the inside, clean the area thoroughly and then use adhesive to hold it in place, this will strengthen the metal so as that over time it doesn't get messed up, and get a spring for the bottom of the antenna to allow it to flex.
