The antenna should either be mounted on the top of the car right above the rear window or on the trunk lid. If you mount it above the window you need to run the wire in the weather stripping, into the trunk, and through the car to the radio. Trunk lid...pretty much the same. There should be plenty of room behind the radio or in the dash somewhere for wire to go.
