There is space for the antenna beneath the black cover that houses the LED for the security system. It seems like a good location because it is adjacent to the windshield at the center of the dash.

The tricky part is running the wire down through the dash. You need to pull up the defroster trim to access two screws that hold the LED carrier in place.

You can see the assembly through the windshield from outside of the car after you remove the black cover. Unfortunately, you cannot see the screws while you are working. You have to remove the two screws by feel, then the LED carrier can be lifted out of the way to make a path for the antenna wire and fitting. The concern I had was that it would be very easy to drop the screws down the defroster duct.

Good luck.
