Thats what I have in mine. All in one and I can remove it or hide it.

I have my antenna mounted to the backside of the rear license plate. Looks really good in my book.

I've had no problems with mine, but I have one of the more unpopular mounts which require drilling. My SWR has been a constant 2.1 or so at full power, which isn't great, but I can live with it.
