The Aerpro APVCBB23 is a bonnet mount UHF antenna bracket designed specifically for the Mazda BT-50 from 2011-2019. It mounts to the passenger side bonnet hinge using the vehicle's existing mounting points, eliminating the need for drilling or complex modifications.

The 18mm antenna mounting hole accepts all brands of UHF CB antennas, and a 5mm cable slot allows the antenna to be installed or removed easily without fully dismantling the mounting setup.

Does Not Obstruct Bonnet or Window Wipers: The bracket is designed to maintain the full operating range of the bonnet and does not interfere with window wiper function, preserving the vehicle's standard functionality after installation.
Single Piece Press-Bent 4mm Steel Construction: The bracket is formed from a single piece of 4mm steel using a press-bent process, providing a rigid, strong, and reliable mounting platform suited to both on-road and off-road heavy-duty applications.
Matte Black Powder-Coated Finish: The matte black powder-coated finish provides corrosion resistance and a discreet, low-profile appearance that suits the exterior styling of the Mazda BT-50.
