Satellite Antenna Placement

Hey Everybody,

I'm thinking of getting Satellite Radio. Where is the antenna mounted on the SLK? Is it a stealth install, or is it mounted on the trunk? Thanks a lot!

From the factory, it comes mounted on the center of the trunk. Look for it on some of the pics.

If it's an aftermarket install, you may wish to have the antenna installed under the black vent located on the hood. Some have done this already. I'm not sure about the signal strength.

I put my Sirius antenna in the small grill at base of winshield on left side. It works pretty well. No complaints.
