XM Antenna install
 

Anyone have any pics of how they installed their XM radios in their TJs? My
wife doesn't need her Roady 2 anymore, so I thought I'd put it in my TJ. I
have the little magnetic antenna -- thought I'd see where people have
mounted them. We used the vent mount in the XJ, but I really don't want to
use that in my TJ if I don't have to...

I've seen them strapped to the top of the roll bar. Most are low-profile
enough that they don't interfere with the soft top at all.

Mount it on top of the center rollbar, underneath the padding. Neither
the hard top nor soft top will impede the signal getting to it.

Right on the dash, antenna and all.

Radio signals work great right through a Jeep hard or soft top.
