Default Antenna Mount

I have a 2008 Electra Glide Classic. I want to run without the tour-pak but do not want to go with the detachable setup. I bought an antenna relocation kit at my dealership, but that only works if you use the detachable kit. If you had an Electra Glide Standard and wanted to add a radio there would have to be a mount for the antenna (you would think). Any suggestions? I know Pingel makes one but I have a credit at Harley.

Also want to go without the tour pak. My bike is a 97 FLHTC and the antenna relocation kit contains a antenna mount bracket. I am trying to figure out exactly where it mounts but do not believe that it has anything to do with the detachable hardware. Perhaps things have changed on the newer models.

Default Antenna Mount

I finally gave up on Harley and took the part back. I ordered an antenna relocation kit from Pingle. It mounts the antenna to the rear fender support bracket. Dennis Kirk also sells them and they have a picture showing how it is mounted. (check their website). Looks like they have one to fit your bike.
