Somewhere flat like the roof (ideal) or side of the bonet. Can mount on bullbars but the forward range isnt as good. Not to sure where you would get radio gear from in rotorua but try dicksmith, if they dont do radio stuff they might be able put you on to some one that does

It also depends on whether it is a ground dependent or ground independent aerial as well
