Tuff Terrain bonnet bracket puts your UHF antenna on the bonnet edge where the mast can work in clean airflow. The mount sits on the passenger side which moves hardware out of the driver’s main sightline and closer to the A pillar. The bracket profile follows Toyota Hilux N80 and Toyota Fortuner AN150/160 bonnet shapes, meaning the gear stays planted when you hit corrugations or head outback.

316 stainless steel construction stands up to red dust moisture and salty air that attack mild steel, as the alloy resists pitting and surface breakdown. The black powder coat layer takes UV and stone strikes first which slows wear on the base metal. The round antenna hole matches common UHF stud bases, while the slotted fixing hole lines up with an existing bonnet bolt so you avoid fresh holes in good panels.

• Uses existing bonnet mounting points where applicable

• Intended to carry a UHF or communication antenna bracket and antenna

Q1: Can this bracket carry heavy UHF antennas on rough tracks?

Yes, the bracket suits typical UHF and communication antennas used on touring 4x4s. The 316 stainless steel plate manages vibration and whip loads from corrugations. The mounting zone sits near the bonnet frame to share forces into factory structure. For very tall or high-gain antennas, always follow the antenna manufacturer’s guidelines on mounting and vehicle speed.

Q2: Will the bracket interfere with bonnet opening and closing?

No, the bracket profile matches the Hilux and Fortuner bonnet edge and uses existing mounting points. The formed bends sit clear of the guard and hinge path. Normal bonnet opening and closing remains unchanged when the bracket installs correctly. Always check clearance after installation, especially with large antenna bases fitted.

Q3: Is any extra hardware supplied with the bracket?

No, the listing includes the bonnet mount antenna bracket only. Installers usually reuse suitable factory hardware at the mounting point. Antenna bases and fasteners come from the antenna kit or installer stock. Check thread sizes on the chosen fixing bolts before tightening.

Q4: Can I mount other accessories on this bracket?

Generally, the bracket is intended for a single UHF or communication antenna base. Light loads that share the antenna fixing hole may be possible if they fit the space. Extra gear changes the load path through the bracket and vehicle panel. Always assess weight, vibration and legal requirements before adding non-standard accessories.
