<div>This is how to determine where to put your antenna.</div>

<div>Locate a portable radio, one with medium wave reception.</div>
<div>Tune to a medium wave transmitter. (if you can find one).</div>

<b>Betreff:</b> [Mgs] Antenna hole size on MGB</div>
<div name="quoted-content">I also have to wonder why you
want to put the antenna on driver's side. I too would put
it on the passenger's side. Unless you are talking about
the rear. Still? As for size of hole, measure the metal
part that goes through the fender or scuttle into the car,
(it's usually some sort of threaded cast metal). You must
use the actual antenna you are going to install. The part
that is to go through the fender may not be circular, but
you can extrapolate the circle from the size. The antenna
may also have instructions. Hmm. As a rough estimate you
can use the chrome bezel of the antenna as a guess. You
don't want to make the hole larger than that. In fact, you
want to make the hole as small as possible. You may be
able to install the workings of the antenna from the
inside of the car. Make a template of the hole you want to
make. Again, don't make it bigger than the chrome bezel of
the antenna. Make sure that there isn't something
important under the location where you are going to drill<br>
the hole, and that you will have enough room in the
footwell, fender, etc. for the antenna motor and shaft and
will be able to snake the wire through to the radio. Find
your location, tape your template on so both sides of the
cut are protected. I suggest using a pinpoint metal punch
to dimple the center of the hole to be cut, then employ a
new circular metal cutting blade with small center pilot
hole. Insert the bit into VSR drill, have a beer, grit
your teeth, and go for it.<br>
Any problems, have another beer and ask a neighbor for
HELP!<br>
