Anyone know of a good commercial kit that provides a ground plane that supports a standard NMO mount on a late model Jeep Rubicon removable fiberglass roof shell?
Thanks!

You could run a 'no ground plane' antenna on a thick plate MNO mount.
Thick BodyMounts by Comtelco
TBML Thick Body Mount 17ft RG58 N.C.
Up to 1/4" Thick Plate, 3/8 or 3/4 Hole
VTBML Very Thick Body Mount 17ft RG58 N.C.
Up to 1/2" Thick Plate, 3/8 or 3/4 Hole
UTBM Mount terminates as MINI-UHF
TAUHF Thick Adapter UHF
TAN Thick Adapter N
UTCM Mount Only
UTCM-GP Ceiling Mount Mini UHF with BSGP
Some use copper window screen as a ground plane but that gets big at VHF, 40" dia.
