The best place for best perfomance is in the centre of the roof but most dont want to put it there. Some Aerials have ground plain built in and can be mounted on bull bars etc,
check with specialist suppliers fitters , the average 4x4 shops dont always know enough about this .

Watch those drive throughs. lol

I've got the same problem with my HF aerial. Mine must go close to the 4.3m height restriction. lol

Is that a legal 4.3m restriction, or a practical restriction eg powerlines
