Correct, on my retrofits that is where I put mine as well - on the metal brackets behind the radio.markeg wrote:The lead runs through to the light unit above the rearview mirror in mine, and there was an f-connector in there so replacement was simple - but IIRC cj10jeeper mentioned that some cars have the antennae behind the dashboard?

As PVR states, the retrofit location is in the dash behind the instrument panel, which is where I put mine.
Pvr obviously was cutting corners again.

Have you checked in the light module near the rear view mirror? Mine is not in the plastic part of the rear view mirror, but under the interior light module (the lights pop out)...
