I was thinkin' of putting my Serius antenna up on the rear deck, but I'm curious to know how the signal might be effected by the tint? I have 3M film with a 98% UV rejection and some odd 80% heat rejection or whatever. There's no metal or reflective film.... I'm wondering if anyone has tried this yet, and would they know how it works? I haven't installed the satellite receiver yet, and I suppose this might be good to know so I don't have to move it later.

 

i have mine there...no real problems. it isnt quite as good as it is in my other car but it is pretty good overall

 

My mother in law has her's up in the front windshield in her car, so if it performs as good as that, then I'm fine with it... but I wasn't sure how the tint would affect it.
I assume you have tint on your back window?

 

I have mine on the rear deck with 35% tints. Works great and noone notices it because it blends in with the black carpet.

 

I also have mine on the rear deck, but I have no tint. I did notice that it does drop out every now and then but only for 2 seconds or so. On my last trip from DC to NJ and back it dropped maybe 3 times (not including going through the tunnel of course). I don't know if that's a lot or not but it doesn't really bother me.

 

yes i have tint

 

I put mine on rear deck under the carpet with no issues. Reception as good as my F150 factory roof mount.

 

Right on, guys.... that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the pics and the info.

 

I have my Sirius antenna and my GPS antenna in the back deck and both work fine.

 

Mine is below the left side package tray/headrest fairing-not much difference between mounting out side of car.

 

I siliconed my antenna to my rear window after I saw it rusting and leaving rust spots on the roof my car.

 

put mine in the back window also with a small piece of velcro to hold it in place in the twisties! It works great!

 

D'OH!

 

Yeah I went oh **** when I saw them, but I was able to get them off before it caused any damage.
