My new fender from AMD had no hole for the radio antenna does anyone have some measurements as to where it goes. Also may be a stupid question but need same measurements or location where I need to attatch/put my fender tag.....Thankyou in advance......Dave

Here's some pics to help.  If you can look underneath the antenna mounting are it will be obvious what needs to be done.

If it ain't broke, fix it 'till it is.

Be sure to start from the inside out..we took careful measurements and went from top down, and it was very hard to get the antenna clamp to work on the inside. There is a depression for the antenna clamp, you need to be centered on it.

Got the antenna mounted. the back side of the fender had a cutout where you drill your hole .It really was quite easy. For future readers the inside of the AMD fender doesnt look like the ones in the above picture. Basically all you can do is center your hole on the cutout on the back side and make sure you position it correct because there is two nubs you have to file out so the base of the antenna will drop in. A chainsaw file works great for filing in the small nub cutouts.Thanks to all for the info.....Dave
