    Some will say passenger side cause you get a better signal but personally i dont know or see why....If left on passenger side you will be more prone to hit trees n such..

    By spot mirror if you are referring to the mirror at the top of the door there is a mount made. The Facebook page is something along the lines of Cascadia antenna mounts. I use one for my 2 meter antenna works fine. Limit for antenna lenght would be about 54 inches
