'87 and later 928's have the Fuba Betaflex radio antenna: Where is it mounted?

The Fuba Betaflex antenna, which was first seen in the United States on the 1986 VW Scirocco 16 valve, and later on the 1987 Porsche 928S4....

WHERE is it mounted? I know that I've seen something in the workshop manuals that details this. I spent an hour today combing my set- I wasn't able to find it. I was able to find a description of where to put the cellular and "C-Net" antenna's....

[What is a "C-Net" phone?]

but I am sure I saw, one day, a description of how to position the Fuba antenna on an earlier car. Though it is not correct, and I will NOT hook it up, I still prefer the look of the little whip antenna at the back of the roof. It probably knocks about 5 mph off the cars' top speed, but then again I'm not racing my 928, and I am certainly not going that fast on public highways!

Question: Those of you with S4 and later cars...millimeter measurement from the rear edge of the roof stamping to the CENTER of antenna mount: What is it?

Thanx!

N!
