Default xm antenna

I am trying to install an xm antenna on my girl, but can't use magnetic delphi antennas, can I? I really don't want to stick onto the top with the adhesive kind, since magnetic doesn't work. And the Turk glass mounts have two connectors, with my receiver only having one.
Any solutions to this problem, or can I stick the adhesive on the rear glass without making a mess?

I mounted my antenna behind my taillights. There is a ledge right above the license plate behind the rear facia. Do a search on the forum and there are a few posts regarding this.

Good luck

Here's a pic of my magnetic base Terk XM antenna attached to the back frame cross member. Works great!

Tail light is removed, looking through opening.
