MC: I figure the front and center position, down the windshield trim is by far the easiest - and as you've mentioned, replacing would be a snap. I have the gentex temp sensor harness going thru the firewall, so I could easily slip that wire in the split harness. I've got three other vehicles in the family with XM already - my pickup I went out the third brake light hole, father-in-law's Prius rides over the hatch seal (not crazy about that one), and my wife's maxima has flat boot looking antenna (xm, from the factory). I was curious if someone had gotten really creative, used any of those GM type antennas that go thru the roof (drilling... ughh), or used any of those maxima style antenna's somehow. I just like hiding wires, making it look nice.
To go out the back hatch, are you using that washer fluid line grommet, or riding over the hatch seal? If you somehow use that grommet, do you take that line out, slit it, push the satellite wire thru then put the fluid line back? Just doesn't look big enough to me to do much.
Dpatton: I got a warm/fuzzy, personalized Form letter (email) from the CEO of XM yesterday. He assured me everything was gonna be OK - just wanted to calm everyone elses fears here on the forum. Oh well, this may make MC's install option the choice since I *may* be changing my XM antenna for an Sirius style anyway next year!!!! Or ripping it all out when they double the price!?!?!?
Thanks for the replies on this.
