Nice job.

Good photo showing the pros and cons of NMO's. Looking at that mag mount scratch compared to properly installed NMO is a good example of how to do it.

Two radios but 3 antennas. Planning for the future?

Looks like the center mag mount has the coax cut off.

Yeah, first one is the hardest. It's easier after that.

Once you install permanent NMO's, you won't go back.

Congratulations.

Amen. I despise magnetic-mounted mobile antennas. They tear up the finish, are poor performers, and are only a temporary compromise. I've used NMO mounts on every car I've owned for as long as I can remember. Also, have never had issues selling, trading, or leasing any of my cars with NMO mounts on them when I dispose of my vehicle(s).

Perfect photo of what I constantly try to tell people how much damage a mag mount can do to the paint finish over time.

It'll buff out .....

I only use mag mounts for temp installs. Nmo or go home. I use the cablematic hole saw and stock spare blades and bits. Does the job right the first time.

That will certainly make a hole, headliner and all.
