Just wondering where and how you mounted ant. for XM/Sirius on your GTS?

I don't want to drill anything.......

Has anyone tried leaving ant inside headliner? ? as our cars are not metal?? ?

PICS/thoughts/ideas..
Thanks

look in my pics for the mounting of the antenna.

i ran my wires under the sill,up into the dash. no cutting at all. my roady is double sided taped to the dash and has been for 2 years with no problems.

I just installed Sirius in my GTS. The tuner sits right by the ash tray and the antenna works good mounted on the dash by the security alarm light. Very clean look. Sorry no pictures yet.

I just added mine to the 02 Tahoe Z71 a few days ago. The Sirius uses a magnetic antenna of which was easy for me to install on the Tahoe, but u would have to add a thin layer of double sided tape to the antenna and stick it on the dash like YouWish did :) I love listening to whatever i want and no Wal-Mart edited music.

I'll try to get you some pics, but for know I can tell you that I mounted my XM antenna to the top of my rear glass. There is metal under the glass and the antenna sticks poorly. So I used some black (Black being the best color of coarse) duct tape to make sure it stays put. Works like a charm.

I have Sirius and my antenna is wired under the carpet and comes out in the back sitting on the carpet in the hatch back under the glass (plus, I have my windows tinted). If I had the mount the antenna outside of the car, I wouldn't own sat. radio.

Wow, glad to hear it works on the "inside".
I suspected it may be okay with our composite panels.
NO DRILLING/NO CUTTING,,,beautiful!

I hear ya! But the thing is, I would know it's there and that's what bothers me. I don't know what I would do without my Sirius, it's great!

You will never notice it. Most people, if they see it think it is part of the car.
