Tom and Doreen Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 My cellular antenna has become unattached from the roof, holding on only by the attached cable. It appears that it was attached by some sort of adhesive only. Does anyone know what type of adhesive I should use to reattach it? Would exterior double sided tape work? What does the factory use?

Steph and Dud B Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Is the adhesive black and rubbery? Stephanie and Dudley from CT. 2022 LE2, Hull #1150: Eggcelsior.

Tom and Doreen Posted October 30, 2023 Author Share Posted October 30, 2023 No, it appears to be yellowish. I haven’t tried to remove it as yet, maybe it’s adhesive tape?

jd1923 Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Sorry, just seeing this a month later... I would use 3M VHB 4950 tape. You must clean ALL old adhesive, down to bare metal or plastic, clean with alcohol on both surfaces. I get so many products with two-sided tape included and if the mount is important, I throw it out and use the 3M product. 1 3 Chris & John in Prescott, AZ | 2016 EII #113 | '01 Ram 2500 Cummins!

Unfortunately I couldn’t find it locally and was leaving on a trip so I ended up using ext/int Gorilla double sided tape. We traveled from CT to PA to VA to SC and back and encountered rain, sleet, and heat along the way with no problems. This may not be the best solution but I don’t believe that the antenna will detach again. 1 Tom & Doreen • 2023 Elite ll • Hull #1321 • 2023 Tundra Platinum Crew Max • Cheshire CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
