Alright technology experts: Anybody have any ideas of the best place to put the magnetic Sirius radio antenna on an 84 westy? It was on the roof right above the rear-view mirror in my 91 vanagon, had to remove the whole system, engine problems (that's another thread). So I'm moving the system to the 84 westy, satellite radio is so great for long road trips and camping in the middle of no-where (not that camping requires tunes, it's nice to get NPR and weather stations). It's a perfect accessory for the westy! The antenna wire is about ten feet long, with the super strong magnetic antenna head at the end. If the tuner is under the passenger seat that is pretty much the perfect length to get to the area right over the rear-view mirror, through the weatherstripping under the carpet etc. I'd do the same as before but there's not enough metal roof on the westy roof. The Sirius tech guys were laughing at my questions, They told me let them know what I found out to work best and they'd put it in their tech support manual. cheers- tyler __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
