I just bought a 2008 Versa Sedan and have been trying to determine the best place to mount my XM Radio. I have a Pioneer Inno. I'm wanting to mount it and try to hide the cables for a clean install but can't really find a good place to do it. I don't want to cover any vents. I thought about mounting it to the outside of the little compartment since I can't find much of a use for it.

Anyone have any thoughts/ideas/suggestions?

try this:

Sirius Antenna Install

would that work for you?

It might. I've also got to run power to it so not real sure where to mount the actual radio itself. I do have the convenience package so I would love to find a way to use that antenna instead of mine...I might end up having to pull the covering off the existing radio and run it behind it.

If you have convenience and not the moonroof or the audio package, you don't have the factory Satellite antenna.

If your antenna is a small triangle with the antenna coming out and your antenna will fold down forwards and backwards, you do not have the factory satellite antenna.

I've had both. They look different... lemme see if I can dig up pics for comparison...(Non-satellite antenna ^) (Satellite antenna >)

Clear as mud?

Ok, so I don't have it then. Not a big deal. I don't mind the little black antenna. Now to figure out where to mount and how to hide the wires. I think the slimline adapter mounted to the front of the little compartment door might be my best bet
