Hey Wolf,

Just installed my S50 into a DII yesterday. What model vehicle do you have and which receiver did you buy? I just have to finish the hardwiring today.

I placed mine above the drive side vent on top of the dash... The smooth finish of the trim made for an ideal place to attach with an adhesive. Sorry, I can mod the exterior but drilling or cutting inside is hard for me to do. Just strange like that, I guess.

If you are running wires into the radio area for direct connect you can even make a small opening under the rubber mat on top of the dash. It would hide well. It would be the shortest distance to the radio...

Mine is to the right of the steering wheel on the dash!!! I love it's location because the display is easy to se easy to reach and never gets in the way!
