Hey Rev, how did you swing this? I actually don't care about retaining the function of the factory satellite but I would like to make use of the factory antenna for my aftermarket radio. I did this in my last car, but the harness in the F150 isn't long enough (from what I can tell anyway). How did you get it hooked to your aftermarket unit and where have you mounted it?

Yup, this is exactly my deal too. I have a Stileto 2 that is set to record Ch. 41 from 3pm-7pm EST every Mon-Fri. Can't do that with the factory radio and that is just not acceptable. I fabbed up a custom metal mount for the Stileto but the damn thing just broke, now I'm looking for a new solution to moun the radio.

My unit is small, so I just set it on the ledge in front of the clock/compass/thermometer. I was using the stick on mount, but it couldn't take the heat this summer...

What about making a box with a hinged motor cycle seat, maybe a back pad as well on a sissy bar (great for the HD). You'd have the seat that could flip up and give you access to the storage?
