I'm interested in finding out the answer to this too.

By the way, you might want to lower your car a bit bro.

+1 Back Deck. Or, if you are creative, and don't need to use it, cut the lever inside the car seat latchanchor back there, and install it inside of it, wired from the bottom. Totally stealth......

+2 on this install, on the back deck. Works great. I've had my mom's car, a 2006 Toyota Corolla, with the XM antenna on the back deck between the speakers for almost 2 years. Works wonderfully; only reception issues have been when I went through a long tunnel that even AM & FM radio stations were cutting out. We also had it installed in the same location on our old 1991 Jaguar XJS for a while, and it worked great there too...Previous to me buying my Mustang GT, I'd had my XM Radio on the front dash of my 2002 Saturn, right down by the A-Pillar. Out of sight, got decent reception for the most part, but was better when I moved it to the back window between the two speakers..

I kinda like the above suggestion of running it into the seat latch anchor, though...
