I started out with the antenna (XM micro, or something like that) at the front of the dash. It worked great in urban areas and flat country side, but sometimes performed poorly in the mountains, forested areas, and some urban areas that I assume don't have ground repeaters. I guess a lot of folks never really drive in these areas, so it might be a moot point for them, but for me moving the antenna to the roof really helped in low reception areas. I currently have mine just above the passenger A-pillar and windsheild molding, which I find to be fairly stealthy. Of course, I might go for a smoother install if I had as sweet a car as Rogo's Viggen!
