Default Installing Sirius Antenna

I posted this in another forum thought maybe it would get more view here but my friend has asked me to install his Sirius antenna in his TC. I had no trouble with my XB at all yet the TC design seems to be causing me a few problems with where to run the wire.

I was wondering if anyone has run the wire on the TC yet and if so where.

(Also his setup has a receiver that he has sucktion cupped to the window so the installation is obviously not going to be super clean cause the wire is goign to be running on his dash somewhere to plug in )

up front in the center of the dash... or on the rear near the stock antenna... I don't think there are many options on the tc for sat radio...

Yea exactly the problem I am running into with my friends tC there isn't much room plus half the car is glass.

TBone. I installed my Sirius antenna slightly off center in the back on my roof. The reason its slightly off center is because the roof of the XB is ribbed. I ran the wired straightback and into the weather stripping in my hatch and around the right side of the hatch and down to the floor where I then ran it under the carpet down the kick board.

I can post a pic if you like or PM me if you want a better description. It was real simple. With the TC its just very little room to put the antenna and in the back it is kind of odd with all the glass on the roof.
