Q. Where should I mount the aerial Supplied for the GPS Antenna?

A. The Sat Nav Receiver Unit is magnetized. There is a bulkhead immediately available, just 'stick' it there! Or if you want the Best signal, The units have a signal strength for the GPS. Try it on top and underneath and look at the strength. If it's just the same then fine but most I've installed the signal goes up by a bar or two when on top. If you do decide to put it under the dash behind the double din then mount it on the top of the metal crash beam not underneath as the signal really drops underneath.
