Inch behind the firewall 6 or 8" from the fuel vent. ADSB and comm just in front of the spar carry thru one under pilot, one under passenger.

My xpndr and ADS-B in antenna are installed about 8" fwd of the spar on each side. This is a -7A, so they are just under the MLG weldment, which protects them and their coax.

I think most tail draggers install them per dlloyd's recommendation. A friend installed his in the aft fuselage and they were broken off a number of times by dogs or people crawling under the plane. Ask me how I know :)
