slapshotz Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hi. I'm wondering where you guys who did your own install put the XM Navtraffic unit? I'm done with all the head unit install and wiring, but i can't find a place to jam the xm receiver. There's just no space anywhere near the front of my car. Anybody have an idea where to put the xm receiver? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

slapshotz Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Whoops! That would help. it's a 2002 subaru wrx wagon. I should also mention that there's already a subwoofer under my passenger seat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JasonH Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 You could always mount it in the trunk, be sure the cables will reach though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slapshotz Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 well, after spending the last hour contemplating my options, i decided to move all the wires to the driver side and velcro the receiver under my seat. i hope it doesn't slide around too much.

PaisanNYC Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 i have my navtraffic tuner installed behind the dash under the head unit (where there is a little cubbyhole on the ford expeditions and explorers). It is held down by industrial strength velcro. no sliding around whatsoever with that stuff! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slapshotz Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 i spent a good 30 minutes trying to find a spot behind the head unit for this thing. i realized that i could barely jam in all the wires and harnesses, so there's no way a receiver would fit back there. let's hope the velcro works as well underneath a seat!

KITSOS Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 I used the brackets and ziptied it under my 2005 Subaru WRX passenger seat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slapshotz Posted September 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 My factory sub's under the passenger seat, but it appears that the velcro trick's working well. it hasn't moved at all as far as i can tell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
