why would you want to put it outside.
it can get stolen or damaged.
just put it on the front dash or like on the panel at the rear where the sub is.
signal should be more that great at both locations.
good luck

Morons put it on the roof. If it gets stolen, they cover it.

yeah same deal, just curious where people put their antenna, doesn't matter if it's pioneer or not.
