I don't know how much different it might be since I have an 2002 LT, but I mounted my antenna for my XM on the roof, up from the rear view mirror.

I mounted my XM on the driver side center vent. I ran the wire in the dash lip up and around the instrument panel and down past the headlight control. I then loosened the panel below the steering wheel, ran the wire through there so that it was hidden then up the door seal to the bottom corner of the windshield. I then took a wooden clothes pen apart and used the end the you apply the pressure too, to lift the lip the of the trim on the windshield and ran it up and around to the rear view mirror, then back 5in from the windshield.

There was a lot of wire left so I made sure that the slack was accumulated back at were the panel was and bundled it and hid it in the panel below the steering wheel, then tightened up.

Just make sure when you mount the Sirius that you ALWAYS take it out when you're not in your TB!!!
Some....@#$#$*g scumbag:banghead: Broke my window and climbed in side my TB and stole power plug and Sirius sportster!!! And to top it all off he scratched up my leather from sitting on the glass!!!!
OH yea...... this was 2 weeks ago! And I'm STILL just a little bent out of shape!

Needless to say I wouldn't mount it to the window.
