The SS184 stainless steel mount is primarily used to install antennas on the 1994 through 2003 Dodge Ram and Dakota pickups. (Due to body changes made in 2004, this mount will not fit 2004 and newer vehicles.) When the hood is open, the fender bolt near the firewall is removed (right or left side) and later reused to bolt the antenna bracket to the fender lip under the hood. All mounting hardware is hidden under the hood. Mount includes additional stainless steel sheet metal screws for extra strength and support. The bracket has a predetermined bend and does not interfere with hood closure. The bracket is 2" (51mm) wide by 4.1" (104mm) long. The included stud requires PL-259 screw-on coaxial connectors. However, we do have a mini kit that has the bracket and FireRing coax in one package. If you don't already have the coax, the mini kit (MK-184R) would be a better choice.
