sat radio install

I did an install on one of these a while back, dont mount the antenna in the car what ever you do, it decreases reception a ton, mount it on your trunk lid and fish the wires through the trunk and then run the wire up the passenger side and tuck it in to the carpet panelling. Go to best Buy and purchase a portable CD player holder($19.99 and comes in a purpulish package) its found in the media department, you can take the platform off of it and use the arm it comes with to mount the sat radio reciever to it. The install bay I work in uses this all the time and makes life easier because you dont have to mount it on the dash anywhere. screw it in to the side of the center console out of the way of the glove box and any dashboard controls. Let me know if this helps any...
