A more logical approach would be to use a gutter mount.

Gutter mount antennas don't begin to have the power and reception of one drilled dead center in that big metal top. That is where a radio shop did mine and I have perfect 360 degree reception and transmitting.
I am not sure what they did when they pulled the head linner down, but it was down and back up to 15 minutes.
What type of antenna are you going to use? The Wison 1000 works well with a 4' stainless.

Great for desert work but on bush tracks, unless it has a spring type base, you'd be replacing it quite often.

BTW Mike, is that your antenna, on your truck, in the photo attachment you sent Chicago Dan. With one that big you must be able to communicate for thousand of miles. Hehe!

do it yourself

use a heavy vacumn line or heater hose over a drill bit to allow only enough exposed
drill bit to penetrate roof and fish the coax to approprite location. with out
ripping the headliner! if you do use red green approved duct tape!
use only the highest quality british duct tape,
