    I mounted it in the center of the cab roof and ran the tiny coax across to the back door and inside the cab and it reaches across my sunvisor and hangs down from my rearview mirror

    I was afraid that it wouldnt stay secured at highway speeds so i used a 134 wide strip of white gorilla tape my truck is white to just go across the front of the base and along the coax to where it enters the door
