Satellite TV in an X5

Folks,

I have heard of satellite radio in the car but I was wondering if any of the folks in this board has tried satellite TV.

DirecTV has a Mobile package for its regular subsribers (+$4.99) and non-subscribers ($49.99) where you would utilize mobile satellite antenna KVH A5.

I am pretty clear on the connections needed for the OEM TV module, etc., but I wonder if anyone has actually installed the antenna on the car roof, how it looks lilke, how the wiring was done in to the cabin, how the reception is, what area the car was used with what quality reception...

I am considering this as an interesting endeaviour to undertake, so I am soliciting people's opinions

Thank you,

TerminatorX5
