I dont have this unit but I do have the eclipse. I mounted the antenna outside right above the windshield. ran the wire out the firewall grommet near the ecu on the passanger side and ran the wire under the plastic trim on the side of the windshield. short sweet and easy. much easier than when I ran the sirius antenna out the antenna hole in the back.

I do agree the sirius antenna looks much cleaner. still thinking about getting a fm antenna/sirius antenna combo so it looks even better though.

Why the hell does Sirius insist on putting hat huge chunk of plastic on the coax?
