XM radio is satellite technology that the KGB, or i should say, FSS uses to track your car when you're smuggling drugs

No ... It's mobile xray technology....hence the X. You can get zapped while you're driving and it zaps all the people who insist on being on the phone while attempting to drive.

WOOOOOOOOOO Xm crappy Antenna If you have to have it on your trunk may I suggest moving it to the center of the trunk lid...it will make it much more barrable cause that garbage thing will not work under 0.4mm of rear glass!!!!!!!!!
