Right Side Antenna Bracket
I am looking for an antenna bracket for the right side of the rear fender like the stock one on the left but opposite. I have took the stock left side bracket and flipped it over and bent it so the antenna is straight up now. I would like to do the same set up on the right side of the fender and get a splitter for the antenna wire and run to the left side. I have replaced the wip with one of those short rubber ones and now only about 3" of it is in view. I am a balance freak and want to do this mainly for astetic reasons but if I can find the bracket made for the left side it should not be too hard to go ahead and wire it up so it works as well. The reception with the one short rubber antenna is pretty good now. I have talked to the parts guy and he could not find one for any model on the left side. But I think there would have to be because the Street Glide Rear facia has a hole on the left side filler for another one? The mounted well nuts are also there?
Can anyone find me a partnumber for a right side antenna bracket that is like the stock left one. I do not want the one that mounts really low on the saddlebag support or bumper bracket.
This is an 08 RG which I will be adding the SG Rear Fascia but goung to add the plugs for the antenna holes since I have the antenna(s) straight and they will come up right behind where the filler stops.
Hope this make sence.
Any help would be great.

Well, I found this...
76414-06
Price: $90.98 was $109.95
Description
CB Antenna Kit-Frame Mount
Will enable the installation of a CB antenna on the right side of a fender. Kit includes CB antenna and mounting brackets. Fits '06-'08 FLHX and FLTR models. Includes wire whip style CB Antenna P/N 76341-98
But all I need is the fender mounting bracket. I will have to go back to HD parts and make them look up this kit and see if I can just get the bracket. Guess I will also need an FM mount and short wire so I can find a Y to split it and mount another short rubber antenna.

I might have found the part number for the right side antenna mount...76429-06 but I can not find a picture of it on the web, can anyone confirm that this is the correct part?
Now I am going to need the wire and a splitter to connect to the stock cable and run to the right side. Can anyone help me with the part number just for the cable and the end that mounts to the bracket with the threaded piece to screw on the antenna and a splitter?
Thanks, I hope someone can help.

Thanks Dawg, that did confirm that 76429-06 is the correct part number for the right side frame mount but now I need a cable with the FM antanna end that mounts to the bracket. Not sure where I am going to find a splitter to be able to complete this dual FM antanna project.
Still need...
Stock FM antenna cable with end to mount to bracket and antenna
Y-splitter for this type of cable...(is this just coax, can I use a tv cable splitter?)

Radio Shack has coax splitters, or do a search. I found a male/female/female somewhere on the web (sorry I don't rember where) for $10.
Hers one: http://www.buy.com/prod/metra-40-uv4.../90135698.html
Good luck.

That looks like one that would go in the back of the radio and then split.
I am trying to split from the stock left antenna so I do not have to run a cable from the radio all the way through the bike to the rear right side of the fender?
If this is just regular coax it should be easy just using regualr cable tv coax splitter?

I took a small piece of 11 gauge stainless and made my own bracket to clear my luggage rack. It's easy, like folding paper. I have an hour on the bench and it looks nice. I would not pay HD for a little bitty bracket like that. It's not like it is made of titanium or something.
