It all depends on what kind of antenna you are going to use, it is for
2m/440 or for HF use. A few in the group have made mounts that extend
out from under the hood, Jerry B. or Jenn would be a good resource for
this info.

I think you would want one made out of metal. Ham isn't a very
good RF radiator. Lots of attenuation and the dogs chew on them. ;)

I've put 2 meter / 440 antennas through the flat fender next to the hood
and my 10/11 and 6 meter antennas are on the back bumper. The endcaps
have been removed for a decade now!

I highly unrecommend magnet mounts for any frequency.
