I made up an aluminum mount (.032 to .046") with a couple 10-32 nut plates for the antenna center mount and riveted it to the top stab rib with four LP4-4 rivets. The mount has a 5/8" flange in front and rear, is about 3" long, and raises the "puck" up so the top is flush with the top edge of skin. The cut-outs are about 1 1/2+ long on each side, and of course the fiber glass tip needs a couple cutouts also. I also ran about a 4' long coax up thru the vert. stab. with BNC connectors on each end so I could easily remove the stab without re-routing the coax. You can leave the "puck" in place but remove the two stainless antenna whiskers for painting. After paint it is almost unnoticable. Looks great and VOR/LOC/GS receprion is as good as you'll get. I think I have a pic in my Build Log if you want one. I'll scan it and e-mail it to you. (built mine before digital cameras <: ).

Did you cut a notch and let a half inch hang out on either side? Thanks again for your time.
