This time I decided to install the navigation antenna in the dash. There is a metal crossbar just above the radio bracket. There is enough room to put the antenna on it. This is working perfect.

I also decided to install the external mic because my wife said it sounded much better than the internal one. The big foam looks funny and can be removed. It also has a suction cup which I didn't like at first. I ended up placing it on my windshield in the top left corner.



And a night picture
