New Audi A4 owner who is pulling his hair out listening to all the talk and commercials of regular radio. I have to have my XM back. I am also a new father who needs to grow up and put away all the subwoofers/amps and such so I'm going to try to keep my radio stock....for now. Does anyone have any good places to mount their satelite radio controllers? I was thinking of fabricating a new ashtray to hold the Terk XM controller. Anyone ever done it before or have any ideas. Thanks

 

Here is what I did. Also know that you can mount the antenna in the rear deck, and if it is magnetic, it really helps because the speaker grate in the rear deck is metal so the antenna sticks well.

 

Thanks for the pics and the decklid mounting info. I may try that (will be better than the black antenna on a blue car). I'm going to install my XM commander flush mounted in a custom door that I am making for the ashtray location. I'm gonna take pictures and post a how to if it turns out good. Any other ideas are still appreciated (the dremmel hasn't hit the plastic yet).

 

Here is what I ended up doing. Posted in electronics section
