I seem to keep posting this picture over and over...This is a pic of my Terk SR-2 antenna concealed in the rear fascia.

I mounted mine in the same place. I put my converter box in the pass compartment in the rear hatch.

JT-C5,

How did you bring your antenna wires from the rear fascia to the inside of your C5? :confused:

I have a coupe, but I think the same is possible for a vert or FRC. There is a drain opening around the hatch opening that is fairly obvious once you look for it. You can easily drop wires into the fascia area through there. I pulled up the weatherstripping which is easy because its not glued in place and ran the wire under the weatherstrip into the cargo area and behind the carpet. This whole process is extremely easy to do. You can get into the fascia with a T15 driver and removing one or two taillights. It works great.
