Sirius Antenna Placement

[stoavio]

Just bought a new 2010 Mazda 6 iTouring and had the dealership install Sirius. They mounted that little antenna/receiver on the trunk. I quite dislike the location as I feel it detracts from the look of the vehicle.

Is there anyplace else I can put this thing? Right now, it is just affixed using a magnet. Can I put it inside of the trunk or would this prevent it from acquiring a signal?

Also, what are my options for shark fin antennas for the 2010 M6 with Sirius? The VG shark fin won't fit over the Sirius antenna. Do any of them? If not, is there a non-functional shark fin I can purchase just for appearance?

Thanks!

I'm putting mine on the package shelf under the window.

What's the package shelf and what window are you referring to?

Thanks

As far back in the rear window as you can, near the brake light.

Works great there, and no nasty zit on the trunk.
