^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Looking for one that mounts at the taillight in between the hatch. Not really coming up with anything unless I want to drill holes. (which i wont do) Any help would be appreciated.

I think you need to re-read that a little bit slower & let it process....

on our ZJ we mounted the angled antanna bracket underneath the rear bumper cover and cut a tiny hole for it to poke through. You can't see the mounting holes and if we had cut the hole in the bumper a little better it would almost look like it came that way. Antenna is on the side but it doesn't whip around much at all. I don't know if it would mount the same way on an XJ though

sorry I don't have a better pic:
