This is on a 2008 Pontiac Torrent SUV. I have the 2m/440 magmount antenna on the roof. Right now the RG58U coax runs under the lip of the back hatch. Every time the hatch is opened the hatch rubs on the coax. The hatch over time will rub through the coax and short it out. I am looking for other ideas of running the coax short of drilling holes. I got this SUV on a fluke. It just got released from Big Toe's police impound lot to be put up for sale the day that I had my 2000 Windstar towed back in for a trade because of instrument cluster problems. The 2008 Pontiac is the newest rig that I have ever owned. Heck this is my 1st car ever with built in Onstar. period. I would like to avoid drilling any more holes in it then is already done. I mounted the 102" 10m whip on the drivers rear 1/4 panel. I need some ideas please. The rear windows on each side just forward of the hatch don't open. Question. Could I splice some Ladder Line into the coax to feed the line back through the hatch? The hatch won't rub on the Ladder Line.
