Sirius Antenna Locations

Can I see where everyone has there antenna? I think im going to go ahead and get it. I went to best buy today and saw that subscribers get access to all the stations online through there website on the pc too so I thought that was a mega plus while im sitting here. Anways, I dont wanna put that dumb antenna on my car but Id like to see locations and inside locations and if reception is good.

I sell sirius and gotta say that you might be able to get by with puting the antenna on the rear deck inside. Just as long as the antenna has a clear shot of the sky, you should be fine. A friend of mine put his right at the windshield of his F350 and doesn't have problems. Also, I want to let you know that not EVERY station is available online. Most of them are but stuff like sports, Howard Stern, etc. aren't available as of now.

be careful about putting the sirius antenna inside. Thats where I had mine, I had to move it. It didnt get a strong enough signal. The xm was perfect when i had that inside in my focus, but not the sirius, I ended up moving it to the front pasenger corner of my roof outside, perfect signal now.

I have an aftermarket sirius ready headunit. I was doing some searching and someone on here put theres inside near the Apillar right next to the boost guage. My problem is that I have 5% window tint.
