Where did you position your sat radio?

[Arthur Akard]

Just bought myself a Sirius ST2 Starmate radio and I am trying to figure the best place to install it on my '04 ST. Where have you positioned your sat radio receivers?

 

[Gary DiPietroSr]

I have the tuner under the console. Sat. receiver is in the head unit.

I bought one of these on ebay for about $13 when my <a href="http://www.mysporttrac.com/mysporttrac/projects/Sat_Receiver_Install.pdf">original mount</a> adhesive started to fail because of extreme heat in the summer time. This is working out fairly well.

Art,

Do you have the full center console? If you do everything fit in there perfectly and you can hide all the wires and everything. I don't have any pics yet but will do it soon if you need.

Hey George, no I don't have the full console. Just the little one. - Art

Click the purple wrench next to my name to see the location of mine, as well as positioning of the antenna along with installation instructions.

Here's what another member (Thomas_C) did for his Sirius Sportster install on his short console:

Hey - I was just going to post that pic! How funny! Here's a side shot of the install.

I mounted my Roady2 to the window with the adhesive mount (I can always get it off with fishing line if I need to) and it made it through an entire summer of south Mississippi heat...so far so good...( put it this way it was almost 70 degrees today, Christmas Eve!!)

all wires are hidden, and it's hardwired to the fuse box to come on when I start the truck...

My antenna is very close to where Ryan Y's is but inside the black part and on the passanger side.

The wife got me an XM for Christmas (and an air compressor ...she knows me). I like the ceiling mount, the space between my consoles is where my cell phone is. Ryan Y, did you run that antenna wire through the windshield frame or the door jamb?

 

[Ryan Y]

Through the door jamb...then tucked just inside the molding running up the windshield. No leaks or anything...

the wires ran from the radio, where I have it positioned, tucked nicely under in the headliner, then ran down the A Pillar to the fuse box...(and the antenna out the door jamb on the INSIDE of the molding)



If you want more pics I can take some and post them...

Thanks Ryan,that was quick! Still not sure where I want to mount it, I'm playing with different places right now. I might have some wiring questions later.

 

[Ryan Y]

no problem... I'm no expert, but I'll help any way I can!
