Default What's the best way to install a dab aerial?

Hi, I have recently bought a dab radio which requires a separate dab aerial rooted into the car.

I have installed the radio and all is working but now I have to install the dab aerial which has to be mounted on the wind screen.

Has anyone got any ideas on where I can hide the wire running down from the windscreen to the back of the radio?

Thanks, Mo

How much did they give you? If you have enough, I would run it under the trim around the rear window and into the car through the trunk compartment. Seems odd they would make you mount it on the front window.

The cable is 3.5 meters long and it has to be mounted on a window of some sort.

Oh and it's an inside aerial.
