Looking for a bonnet mount UHF antenna bracket for your Holden Colorado (2012-2021)?
The 016-BB is a purpose-built bolt-on bonnet hinge antenna mount designed to give you a secure, factory-style mounting position - without drilling into guards or modifying your Colorado.

The 016-BB positions your antenna neatly along the bonnet line for reliable performance on-road and off-road, without adding clutter to the front end.

Can I install it myself?
Can I install it myself?
If you’re comfortable with basic hand tools, yes. If you’d rather have it done professionally (or you’re adding a radio at the same time), we recommend an installer for best cable routing and performance.
Where does the antenna sit on the vehicle?
Where does the antenna sit on the vehicle?
It positions the antenna neatly at the bonnet/guard area (depending on the model bracket), keeping it accessible while maintaining a clean touring look and avoiding bullbar-mount drawbacks.
Do I need to run an earth/ground strap?
Do I need to run an earth/ground strap?
In many installs the mount will earth through the body, but paint/coatings can sometimes reduce contact. If you experience performance issues, adding a simple earth strap can help ensure a clean ground.
Is the bracket strong enough for off-road vibration?
Is the bracket strong enough for off-road vibration?
Yes - bonnet mounts are a common touring/off-road solution because they’re rigid and supported by factory mounting points. Correct installation and tightening is key for long-term stability.
Will this work with my UHF antenna (heavy duty / long aerial)?
Will this work with my UHF antenna (heavy duty / long aerial)?
Most UHF antennas with standard mounting threads will suit. For heavy-duty springs or large antennas, we recommend checking your antenna base size and ensuring the mount position gives enough clearance to the bonnet edge and wiper area.
Will it affect opening/closing the bonnet?
Will it affect opening/closing the bonnet?
When fitted correctly, it won’t interfere with bonnet operation. It’s designed to maintain clearance and sit securely without rubbing or binding.
Does it require drilling?
Does it require drilling?
No. It’s a bolt-on bonnet/hinge style mount that uses existing mounting points, so you can install it without drilling into the guard.
