Sat Antenna Location??

Where have you placed your sat antenna?

I'm looking to add the Sirius tuner etc... to my Alpine setup. I just wondered where you stuck the antenna for good reception etc... The back window seems like a good place but I'm not sure if my tint (non-reflective) will affect it.

Sirius Antenna ???

Seems like the rear deck is the most popular for the SAT antenna in 4th gen Max's. Just got Sirius and am wondering if anyone attempted a roof install. The manual (no help) says to run the cable along/under the rubber molding around the back window. On the '01, the molding can't be pulled back (I don't think) without risking not being able to put it back. ANyone do a roof install. If so, any feedback is appreciated.

center of back window on roof, run under molding. Better than when i had it on the rear deck and the trunk lid. The 2001 can be done like this just the same as the fourth gens.
