My wife has a 2013 wrangler and the year of free sirius is about to run out. I want to install her portable stiletto 100 because it has a lifetime subscription on it.

here are 2 questions for you guys:

Is there any way to use the integrated satellite antenna that is already supplying her factory radio? She has the single cd player with bluetooth uconnect. If so this would allow me not to install the magnetic external antenna that comes with the stiletto.

any ideas on mounting the stiletto dock? I really don't want to drill into the dash and the vent mounts won't work with the wrangler style vents. So far, cup holder mount seems best for not altering any plastic, but I would still have to run wires and really don't care for having to look so far down to see screen.

Thanks for any help,
Scott

Also, does anyone know how to remove the dash plastic that surrounds the radio to get at the radio and hide some wires??

The factory antenna has a different connector that the Stilleto.

Thanks, I've heard the sirius antenna is located under the padding in the sound bar/roll bar, can anyone confirm this?

If so, I'll have to put the stiletto antenna in the same location and route the wire the same way.
