Hello, i own a 1987 M998 which original came as a 4man with cargo cover.
On top of my right rear wheelhouse are holes in the pattern shown in the attached picture.
Has anyone an idea what could have been mounted on the wheelhouse?
There is another hole near the pattern, maybe for a radio cable?!
Is there a wheelhouse radio tray or something similar?

Those are the holes for a mounting plate. Normally it's for a RF-382 Series Fast Tune Automatic 500-Watt Antenna Coupler. The hole is where the antenna lead went through to the antenna base. But a few other radio components fit on the same plate.

Juan has one mounted on his, https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/juans-m998-hmmwv.157259/page-5

Mine had one mounted on the drivers side.
