e.Plan the routing of the antenna cable to the cradle. Make sure you avoid any obstructions that could crimp, kink or twist the cable; use protective grommets wherever rough openings are encountered.
f.Route the cable from the antenna position to the interior of the vehicle, working the cable under the rear window molding; make adjustments and take up slack whenever necessary.
g. At the lowest point of the rear window, route the cable into the trunk, taking advantage of existing cable conduits. Then snake the cable around the passenger compartment to the back of the XC9 cradle.
h. In SUV’s, minivans, etc., route the cable into the vehicle under the rubber molding of the hatch door or tailgate, and then under the interior trim.
NOTE: Avoid exposing the cable in the driver and passenger areas where it could become entangled in feet or other objects.
