That's a lot of ferrite beads... Have you tried coiling the coax close to the feed point with 7 turns and using just one or two 3/4 in. ferrites?

This should alleviate a lot of the CMC and create some inductance as well but not as much on higher frequencies above the 30 meter band like the lower bands.

Glad to see you are getting in there and trying to see what works best since every mobile install is somewhat unique to itself.

Keep on posting your findings here for all of us to see!
