bracket mounting question

i ended up using sheet metal screws.
i used the same length as the sunvisor mounting screws which are right next to the mounting areas, so i figured with them i'd be safe.

everything looks great-car now has both working and calibrated front and rear antennas back in the original locations that NSP had them.

Glad you got them taken care of.

Did the screws bite into anything except the headliner?

they went right up into the metal strip above the headliner that the sunvisor also mounts to on both sides.

My car had the holes already in the headliner and sheetmetal above it along with indentations where the brackets were at in the headliner.

I used the same brackets-everything matched up perfect.

Got it. I couldn't remember if it was there or how much was there to try and hit.

Did you happen to take any pics?

pics of finished product...the mark on my sunvisor clip is from me. its from the other bracket i was using for the antenna. it was only on for a month, so hopefully it comes out with time.

regarding the rear antenna, there is a toggle switch on it to go from "T" or "C".....i assume that is for town or country settings?
