The coax runs to a transformer that is epoxy'ed to the rear window, the antenna has the other half that epoxy's to the outside. I don't know if they make a 2 meter version, but I know a guy that has a CB version that works fairly well. I'm sure it is a compromise over most all other methods, but it is an option. The hole mounted Larsen has always given me excellent performance in commercial and ham uses.....Dave Chasey -- WN9NBT
