Plug the sirius receiver hole?!

Hey guys, my wife just got an 07 with the sirius radio and when I went to look at it last night I took some pictures. When I got home and showed her the pictures she about went limp when she saw the receiver sticking in the middle of her trunk. It's like a beautiful woman with a wart in the middle of her forehead. No matter how she looks, you will keep staring at the wart. Does or has anybody come up with a fix (plug, something else) to fix this and then move the receiver to another location. I can't believe ford did this...No wonder they are losing the car battle. The car also has 2 white stripes from the factory and it spills out into them. Hopefully somebody has already thought of a remedy.

Not trying to be an **** here but, didn't you guys look at the cars before you ordered one? I know it's not the prettiest of things but it's there for the best chance of reception. Good luck!

Don't know about Sirius, but XM works fine right here.....The GT-H I drove earlier this week had it on the dash.....

I installed my XM antenna on the passenger side of the dash. I really don't notice it too much and the reception is perfect. I have only had a fuzzy reception once for about 5 seconds and that was to be expected considering where I was.
