Default XM antennas

What type of antenna do you have and where did you mount yours?

Hopefully you can see my Delphi XM SKYFi antenna simply placed on the dash near the passenger side window frame. It works perfectly - no need for anything else. Is this simple enough?

I have a Terk.. mounted it in the rear facia...
There is a shelf in the middle of the car, that it can sit on.

Mine is mounted right under the top of the right rear quarter panel. I asked for a rear facia mount like I'd seen so many times here but the installer couldn't figure out how to get to the location. Rather than call he found another location that seems to work pretty well. The signal goes through plastic and rubber without a hitch but when I lean over the car while applying Zaino it does drop out.

On the shelf in the rear facia. I took out one of the tailights to gain access. Cleaned the surface of the shelf real good, and the antenna just stuck on without any problems. :cheers:

I'm in the rear fascia club too. Terk SR-2 sits nice in there.
