best buy sells a mounting bracket that you can have to the side of your radio bezel. I think that'd be the best spot for it imo.

Which unit is it?

Usually I tend stay away from the seperate units and use add on receivers for my headunit.

I used some thick 3M double sided tape to stick the antenna to the top of the rear glass. Magnetic doesn't work on fiberglass

Ill take some pics of my ghetto sirius setup later. Antenna taped to the dash and the receiver sits in the holder underneath the ashtray. Works like a charm...

Sirius Controled through the headunit.
