Hi All,

I'm getting ready to put some antennas into my 2004 Dodge 2500 roof. Just curious if it's all just flat metal under there or if there is a support structure that I will have to map out so that my NMO mounts miss that part of it.

Thanks,

There's almost certain to be support structures. You need to drop the headliner at least far enough to visualize the underside before drilling.

Just did one of these. Remove the dome light, and the centre reinforcement should be visible theough the opening.

Thanks for the heads up. I figured there would be support structure under there as it's a quad cab. I'm going to place (4) NMO mounts and a GPS/WIFI antenna also.

If you go rearward of the center dome light, I believe you will find a good patch of single skin without support structure. I just installed a pair of antennas on my '02 3500 and that's what I found. I know the body styles are different, but Dodge tends to stick to similar construction techniques.
