David,

I have my XM mag mount antenna inside the van, on the 'ledge' near the
latch for the poptop.  From there, it's easy to route the wire
inside/behind the driver doorway mouldings and under carpet to reach the
dash.  Out of sight, out of the way, and I've never had any problems
with reception (except in areas where I have problems with my Golf - mag
mount antenna on the rooftop - as well).
