The connector for the coax to the plate came with the mount hardware. The mount is from Firestick, and I bought it from the CB and chrome shop down the street from me. The mount was intended to be a door frame mount I believe. Anyhow, the connector is nothing special and can be purchased at any truck stop in the CB section for about $5.

The connectors for the hamsticks can also be bought for $5 each at a truckstop, or you could buy them at a hardware store for $2 (3/8" x 24 thread x 1/2" bolts and couplers).
