GMF4x4 BB-237D BYD Shark Bonnet Hinge UHF Antenna Bracket - Driver Side
The original Australian-made bonnet hinge UHF antenna bracket for the BYD Shark, pressed from 5mm powder coated steel and bolting directly to the driver side bonnet hinge for a rock-solid, no-compromise UHF antenna mount.
Product Overview
The GMF4x4 BB-237D is a purpose-built driver side bonnet hinge UHF antenna bracket designed specifically for the BYD Shark (October 2024 to current). As the original creator of the bonnet hinge UHF mount, GMF4x4 brings proven Australian engineering to the BYD Shark platform, delivering the strongest and most reliable bonnet-mounted antenna solution on the market.
The BB-237D bolts directly to the driver side bonnet hinge using the existing hardware points, requiring no drilling, cutting, or modification to the vehicle. The bracket is pressed from 5mm steel and finished with a durable powder coat black finish for long-term corrosion resistance in all Australian conditions. Importantly, the bracket does not affect the opening of the bonnet or the operation of the windscreen wipers, making it a practical and interference-free installation. All 4WD UHF antennas are compatible with the GMF4x4 bracket mount, giving you full flexibility in antenna selection. GMF4x4 holds many registered designs, patents, and trademarks in Australia and internationally.

Frequently Asked Questions
What side does the BB-237D mount on?
The BB-237D is the driver side bonnet hinge bracket. It bolts directly to the driver side bonnet hinge of the BYD Shark (October 2024 to current). If you require a passenger side bracket, please purchase the GMF4x4 BB-237P instead. Both brackets can be used together for a dual antenna setup.
Will the bracket affect my bonnet or windscreen wipers?
No. The GMF4x4 BB-237D is specifically engineered so that it does not affect the opening of the bonnet or the operation of the windscreen wipers. Full factory bonnet and wiper functionality is retained after installation.
Does the BB-237D work with my UHF antenna brand?
Yes. The GMF4x4 BB-237D is compatible with all 4WD UHF antennas, giving you complete flexibility to use your preferred antenna brand and model. Whether you run an Oricom, GME, Uniden, or any other standard UHF antenna, it will fit perfectly on the bracket mount.
Why should I choose GMF4x4 over other bonnet bracket brands?
GMF4x4 is the original creator of the bonnet hinge UHF mount and holds registered designs, patents, and trademarks in Australia and internationally. The BB-237D is pressed from 5mm steel, making it the strongest bracket on the market, and is proudly made in Australia. Imitation brackets do not carry the same engineering credentials, material quality, or legal protections as the genuine GMF4x4 product.
Does the BB-237D require drilling or vehicle modification?
No. The BB-237D bolts directly to the existing driver side bonnet hinge of the BYD Shark without any drilling, cutting, or modification to the vehicle. This preserves the factory condition of the vehicle and makes the bracket straightforward to install and remove if needed.
