Good morning All. I am moving my Whip Antenna's from my M988 to my new M1045A2. It was easy to place the fixture to keep the Antenna's down with the Soft Top and doors. Would anyone be able to send me a picture of how to do this with a hard top and hard doors.? Not sure if the Antennas are correct for the Slant Back. Just really going for the cool factor. Thanks in advance!

I have seen them tied to mirrors and around the b-pillar (at top of door).
if you think they may catch a branch, make sure to use the correct part of the clip. It will release with enough pressure.

Thanks for the tips gents. My first buggy with the soft top has them tied at the B Pillar. This is the most aesthetically pleasing location in my opinion. Please see my attached pick. I was worried that the up armored hard doors would damage the Lanyard as they are a tighter fit. If you do not think that will be the case I will place the Lanyard in the same location. Thanks again!!!
