For example, with reference to Figure 1, if your FM antenna is located on a rear fender or top of the roof, mount the XM antenna near the rear window location (option 1). If your FM antenna is located on a front fender, mount the XM antenna near the windshield location (option 2). Remember, the closer the satellite radio

antenna can be to the FM antenna, the better the wireless FM reception and sound quality will be.
In order to optimize the operation of the wireless FM modulator, follow the installation guidelines outlined in steps 1 through 4 below:
Step 1:
First, determine the proper location for your satellite radio antenna based on the following criteria for your specific vehicle:
You must locate the satellite radio antenna on the top of the roof either in front of the rear window (option 1) or behind the windshield (option 2). The satellite radio antenna will perform best if magnetically attached to a steel surface with an unobstructed view of the open sky and minimum of 3 to 6 inches of metal surrounding the antenna.
When routing the antenna cable along the windshield or rear window, tuck the antenna cable under the window seal to maintain a professional looking installation and to avoid loose wires on the exterior of the vehicle which are susceptible to damage. Follow the interior cable routing diagram depicted by dashed lines in Figure 1 where possible.
Keep excess cable
Fig 1behind or under the dashboard
For best FM Modulator performance, you must locate the satellite radio antenna in a location that is in close proximity to the vehicle’s FM antenna.
Avoid kinking, crimping, twisting or chafing the cable. Use
For option 1 and rear mounting locations, route the cable into the trunk as shown. Always cross the weather seal at the lowest part of the trunk to reduce water leaks. From the trunk, route the cable into the passenger compartment through available wire channels and then along the floor under the door jam trim or under the carpet to the front of the passenger compartment. Do not leave the cable loose in the passenger compartment where it is likely to be damaged.
For option 2 and front mounting locations, route the cable along the door jam and into the vehicle as shown. Route the cable across the weather seal near the bottom of the door to reduce water leaks.
See illustration below (Fig 2) and be sure to locate your car cradle within the shaded area.
Fig 2
Step 4:
For example, secure the excess cable up under your dash board, between the seat and the console, or on the floor under a seat or floor mat. This will help to prevent the excess cable from interfering with the everyday use of your vehicle, improve the appearance of the installation, and avoid any undesirable accidental damage to the cables that might result in loss of power or satellite signal.
For wireless FM modulator installations, securing and tie wrapping the excess cable is important to reduce background hissing noise. Be sure to choose a location carefully by taking notice of how doors and trunks open and close, as well as how seats move when they are adjusted so you can be certain there is ample clearance provided for the cables.
