RE: xm radio

Put XM in 3 of my vehicles, although they use a magnetic antenna. Don't know how you would perform that task with fiberglass unless they have another antenna setup.

RE: xm radio

I've installed 3 myself also. Just curious about any problems I might encounter doing install in a vette. I could attach the antenna somehow under dash. what do you think?

As far as I know the anrenna has to be on top, since XM is streaming audio and data.
