Quick request, can you post a pic of where you mounted the Sirius antenna.
I wanted to do the upgrade but do not want to mount it on the exterior - so i opted not to make the purchase. Any issues with reception?

I don't have a picture but I have the satellite antenna right smack in the middle of the dash, way up front against the windshield. I originally installed it on the outside but this didn't work as the opening and closing of the rear hatch eventually weakened and broke the wire. The antenna runs from the rear bulkhead area (where it is attached to the receiver) down the drivers side door sill under the trim, and then I tucked it in along the left side trim up the dash and along the lower edge of the windshield. It stays in place with velcro on the bottom and on the dash where it sits. No reception problems at all in this location and no worries about it being damaged.
