I am thinking of putting satellite radio in my vehicles ( I already have Sirius installed on the bike which I am selling ) but I am really picky about wanting a clean installation. For those of you with satellite, how did you go about installation ? I am between buying a new head unit for the Boxster, or possibly a plug and play unit so I can enjoy it in both cars. I absolutely hate the idea of exposed wires in the car.

This is the unit I am considering :

Did you mount to the windshield or use a bracket like this :

Also, where the heck do you put the antenna in a convertible ?

Any suggestions / pictures / advice would be appreciated...

Thanks,

Nick
