What sized (diameter) bolt do I need to get to fit the lugs well? Quarter inch, maybe? I am building an antenna...

I think it is a quater inch. Here is the link to the design I used. Good luck! http://videos.komando.com/watch/2338/kims-reports-free-hdtv

I'm using 3/8 myself with washers. Smaller would require washers but would work. I would not go over 5/8 as that might require bending. My son made an antenna for fun mounted in his room with 4 coat hangers that worked almost as good as a $79 antenna mounted on a pole outside..

I drove multiple 6" 3/8" lag screws into 4x6s with ease using a craftsman socket & porter cable adapters. If your adapter will survive the torque, I'd say your lug nut will be removed. TMac

Hello, You would need a 12x1.5mm thread pitch for your vehicle. Let me know if you have any questions and we'll be here to help. Thanks, -Luis

If you want to be certain about depth, insert a toothpick or similar object into the hole made for the bolts. Then measure the length. Your bolt, should be about ⅛th inch shorter that your measurement (remember to include the thickness of the bracket. As for threads/mm and diameter, consult your tv manual.

It is not a UHF. It is a threaded bolt. I believe 3/8 inch but not positive. I had to buy an adaptor to mate with my UHF antenna cable.

I use a Gorilla Wrench which includes the correct size socket. I also use a 6 inch extension. Don't forget to torque your lugs after tightening them.

Yes, it will fit. You will need the proper mounting kit, wiring harness, and antenna adaptor to make it work. All three of them you can find on amazon for somewhere between 20.00 to 25.00.

I agree. Look at the Firestiks or Wilson antennas if you want to thread mount it. I posted a pic of the antenna disconnected from the magnetic base if you decide to go this route.

I dont know what size the actual studs are. The nut to attach the wires is a 13mm. Hope that gives you a general idea or is of some help.

Perfect for oval bars, you may need to find another, longer U bolt. There is a newer model (also sold by Amazon) that may be a more universal fit.

I mounted mine in a 5 1/4" rail, but the minimum you could use is 3 1/2" due to the lenght where the rings goes. Hope this information could be helpful.

i think you will need larger u clamps. i think the clamps furnished with this antenna are made for standard 1 1/4" mast.

You want to go bigger then the 3/8th so there is room to get the bolt in straight, I use a 9/16th so that I have plenty of room to move it the bolt around and make sure that it seats good in the t-nut, you can go smaller if you drill really straight, make sure you test your t-nuts and get them straight before you attach your panels

i have a micrometer i could mic them if you really needed. I can tell you with 99.9% certainty that .125" (1/8") hole is too small and will not work. I would believe the specs. as .250" (1/4") is around the dimension I would say the bolt is. I recomend looking at another product. Hope this helped.

Keith, what did you end out hooking this up to? 5/8's converts to just about 16mm and the "universal" ball size is 17mm. I'm trying to hook this up to my new TYLT VU Qi Car Mount but don't want to buy it if the ball isn't the right size.

If your mounting bracket is wider than about a half inch you will have to shim them
