Relocated the antenna this past weekend and it makes a world of difference on the outside of the fairing, FYI these antennas are very sensitive, for example: sitting in the driveway I would have 3 bars for reception if I put my finger very lightly over the antenna it would go to 1 bar or even 0 bars.

Thanks to all for the info from this site, I can now enjoy listening to Howard Stern.

Nicely done. How did you run the wire? did you drill a hole under the unit?

I unplugged SAT antenna from radio. I then removed wind tunnel and split apart to expose the button, once the button is out you can run the antenna wire down the backside of the button and then put the button back in. I did not drill any holes and I can put it back the way it was from the factory.

CVO23...great idea. Just took 15 minutes and I moved mine outside. I need to get some better double sided tape to hold it down, but it looks great right there.

Can't wait to try it out this weekend...hoping for some much improved reception!!!
