Where did you mount your Nav antenna??

So i just purchased a pioneer Navi, im anxiously waiting for it to arrive, I was wondering where you guys/girls placed your antennas and how you ran the wires, whether it be along the door or just under the center console and up the back seat. It says for best reception place on trunk or roof, and even in back window. I am planning on getting window tints so i dont want to do that.

I mounted mine on the middle of the trunk. I ran it down the driver side hiding the cable in the trim, then stuffed it down the side of the rear seat and once in the trunk I ran it next to the power wires for the third brake light.

thanks for the input, my unit is at the local UPS post so it will be here tomorrow. I think im going to put it by the passenger a pillar. My bro's garmin is mounted in the center of the windsheild and i never lost signal with it so i dont think it will be a problem there

Yeah I placed mine dead center of the dash board at the front of the car, with a little double sided tape.
