I want ti pick up serius satalite radio with the nxt head unit i buy, for those of you that have it where are you mounting the out side transmitter/receiver. I think thats the ugliest part and can ruin a car.

 

I mounted mine on the center of the dash board, close to the windshield. No problems with a signal and the wire can be tucked under the plastic dash.

 

thanks, do you have a pic.

 

I mounted mine on the back deck along with the GPS antenna.

 

top right corner of dash is where i put mine

 

No pics, I put it in a different car recently.

 

i never thought about mounting it inside, good idea.
if not i guess behind the antenna on the roof

 

I'll take a pic later and post it but I put mine on the trunk

 

If you mount it inside, just make sure that your tint is non-metalic. solargard makes both metalic and non-metalic tints. look for "GPS Friendly" on their specs.

I have my GPS, Sirius radio, and traffic/weather antennas mounted on my rear hatch inside the car.

 

Just a thing to remember, satellite radio antennas on the inside are kind of sketchy. I have found that XM is alot more forgiving with being inside, Sirius tends to have alot more drop offs. They also tend to go bad on the outside of the car also. I have lost count with how many antennas I have had to swap because they go defective after a month. Good luck!

 

Center of dash in front of the plastic square piece.

 

YT diamond. I agree with you on the Sirius's small square antennas, but Sirius has come out with a larger round antena that is much better with the drop offs. I run one on my sport bike and rarely lose reception regardless of lean angle. I have my antenna mounted under the plastic in my tail.

 

Sirius antennas look at a wider angle of sky so the lean angle won;t really affect it but it would with XM. IT really comes down to where you ive and if there are repeaters nearby.

 

thanks fpr the advice every1
if i go inside ill look for the bigger antenna.
havnt rulled out the outside shame i cant combine the stock antenna with the sirius1
