Default Transponder Antenna Placement Fuselage Bottom - Minimize Damage?Exact Location

Planning on install of a Trig T22 on my Discus 2A. I see that SH recommends installation on bottom of fuselage near gear door canted off at an angle:

Any recommendations from experience on exactly where to place a stub antenna in such a way to minimize damage while moving into and out of trailer? Also, comments on pluses minuses of adding a ground plane?
