Installing Sirius Satellite

Hello,
Im getting ready to install Sirius Satellite in my 30 F150, I was thinking of placing the antenna above the third light, how hard is it to get it from there to the dash? And whats a good way to hard wire it for power?
Any infor would be great, I plan on attempting to put this in this weekend
thanks guys,
Volksj

I put my antenna above the windshield mainly because it was much easier to run it and hide the wire. You can take it under the weather stripping on the cab. I put some electrical tape around mine where I formed it around the sheet metal under the weatherstripping in the door area. For power I'd use a fuse tap on the interior fuse block.
