Hi,

Just got a Delphi SKIFI2 XM radio car system for our 2004 Quest and I'm looking for ideas on the best way to mount the magnetic antenna. The manual suggests running the wire thought the firewall and up the and around the windshield. This doesn't look like the easiest solution in this vehicle because it is a van and the engine compartment is extrememly cramped. I've also considered mounting it on the back via the rear hatch.

Can anyone give me suggestions as to the best method for doing this? Photos would also be appreciated.

thanks,
Bill

I did attach mine on the back roof, if you give me your address I can send you directions and pictures that I took when I did it. If anyone else wants the pics just let me know.

I put our antenna on the

I put our antenna on the roof right above the windshield and ran the the wire down along the groove in the windshield. I then pulled the weather stripping back around the door and ran it down inside and under the glove compartment, up and around the console to the top of the steering column right behind the silly note holder.

Good Luck!
