 What you are describing is a 1/4 wave similar to that on my car. 
 I use the Max-Rad mount with a 1/4 wave antenna for city and 
 switch to a 5/8 wave base load for urban use.  The bracket is L
 shaped and attaches to the inside edge of my trunk opening with 
 three screws.  Hustler also offers a 1/4 wave, model THF, with a 
 trunk-lip mount which attaches without drilling.  Cushcraft's 
 model CS-147T is a trunk-lip mount with 49 inches of whip which you 
 can trip to 1/4 wave.  And I've seen the same set-up in a local 
 store's MFJ display but can't locate it in their 1996 catalog. 
 Prices range from about $25 to $60 new, depending on brand.
