XM install locations

I am considering getting XM radio. Where are some good places to put the reciever? I will get one w/ remote so it can be a little out of reach if need be. Any pic's would be cool to see.

Thanks
Taver

I mounted my antenna on top of the cab right behind the sirius one and ran the wire down thru the sliding glass window. It drops down behind the back seat from there and runs along hidden up under the passenger side door jams to the front. Then behind rubber door seals up to the A-pillar and snakes across the front of the headliner tucked up in there to my XM which is mounted below the rear view mirror. It looks real clean but I don't have any pics. That wire will slip in behind almost any panel out of sight. If you study for a minute or two you'll figure out a way to get it where you want all out of sight.

I went with a satelite compatible head unit from dodge then bought the XM kit online that lets you run the satelite from you stereo controls. Put the reciever below the steering column and mounted the antenna out the 3rd break light.

Same spot where I mounted mine. It's cleand an no wires showing. I put the antenna just above the winshield next to the A pillar on the driverside (on the outside). Again no wires showing and w/ the XM antenna being small. You really don't notice it.
